U Can't Touch This Lyrics
You can touch this
You can touch this
You can touch this
You can touch this
My, my, my my music hits me so hard
Makes me say, "Oh my Lord"
Thank you for blessin' me
With a mind to rhyme and two hype feet
It feels good, when you know you're down
A super dope homeboy from the Oaktown
And I'm known as such
And this is a beat, uh, you can touch
I told you homeboy (You can touch this)
Yeah, that's how we livin' and ya know (You can touch this)
Look in my eyes, man (You can touch this)
Yo, let me bust the funky lyrics (You can't touch this)
Fresh new kicks, and pants
You gotta like that, now you know you wanna dance
So move outta yo seat
And get a fly girl and catch this beat
While it's rollin', hold on!
Pump a little bit and let 'em know it's goin' on
Like that, like that
Cold on a mission, so fall on back
Let 'em know, that you're too much
And this is a beat, uh, they can't touch
Yo, I told you (you can't touch this)
Why you standin' there, man? (You can't touch this)
Yo, sound the bell, school's in, sucka (You can't touch this)
Give me a song, or rhythm
Makin' 'em sweat, that's what I'm givin' 'em
Now, they know
You talkin' 'bout the Hammer, you're talkin' 'bout a show
That's hyped, and tight
Singers are sweatin', so pass them a wipe
Or a tape, to learn
What's it gonna take in the 90's to burn
The charts? Legit
Either work hard or you might as well quit
That's word because you know (You can't touch this)
(You can't touch this)
Break it down!
Stop, Hammer time!
Go with the flow, it is said
That if you can't groove to this then you probably are dead
So wave yo hands in the air
Bust a few moves, run your fingers through your hair
This is it, for a winner
Dance to this and you're gonna get thinner
Move, slide your rump
Just for a minute let's all do the bump
(Bump, bump, bump)
Yeah (You can't touch this)
Look, man (You can't touch this)
You better get hype, boy, 'cause you know you can't (You can't touch this)
Ring the bell, school's back in
Break it down!
Stop, Hammer time!
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
Break it down!
Stop, Hammer time!
Every time you see me, the Hammer's just so hyped
I'm dope on the floor and I'm magic on the mic
Now why would I ever stop doin' this?
With others makin' records that just don't hit
I've toured around the world, from London to the Bay
It's "Hammer, go Hammer, MC Hammer, yo Hammer"
And the rest can go and play
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
Yeah (You can't touch this)
I told you (Can't touch this)
Too hot (Can't touch this)
Yo, we outta here (Can't touch this)
You can touch this
You can touch this
You can touch this
Makes me say, "Oh my Lord"
Thank you for blessin' me
With a mind to rhyme and two hype feet
It feels good, when you know you're down
A super dope homeboy from the Oaktown
And I'm known as such
And this is a beat, uh, you can touch
Yeah, that's how we livin' and ya know (You can touch this)

This song means that when you're dancing, nothing can touch you. You're just too fly and too legit to let some jock tell you, you cant dance. You got a fly girl & you caught the beat, and you break it down - oh oh oh.
i heard an interview of mc hammer 2nite, and he said that the whole song was just based on the bass line or tune, watever the proper musical term is lol, and the words 'cant touch this'. he said he was on a plane with his brother and was humming the tune and his brother looked at him, so MC said 'you can't touch this'... and thats how it started lol,. so i guess, no meaning, but lots of fun :D -hayles-
That's a nice theory.. too bad he didn't write the bass line. Rick James did.

So the only thing he did is invent 'can't touch this'.

It's catchy, but he's not that good a rapper.
Stop, Hammer time!
I think the lyrics have two seperate meanings: It is about him bragging about his success to other rap artists. The other meaning is suggested by eg 'do the bump' which is a outdated dance move, the sampling from Rick James and the female backup dancers in the video slightly out of reach. It is about women you can't touch; literally.
cool song. meaning? it has a meaning...?
Don't know, but it was my favorite song in fifth grade.
(Oh yeah, that was 12 years ago.)
