The Clean Lyrics

As I continue my never-ending quest to find fun, age-appropriate music for my elementary school students, I was thrilled when I discovered “Uptown Funk.” I was less thrilled when I realized that many of the lyrics are inappropriate for young ears. So, I set out to find the clean version of the song.

The Verse

Uptown funk you up, uptown funk you up
Uptown funk you up, uptown funk you up
I said uptown funk you up, uptown funk you up
Uptown funk you up, uptown funk you up

Hey, hey, hey, oh!
Stop your grinnin’, stop your grinnin’!
What?
We gon’ make yo face hurt! (make yo face hurt!)
I said uptown funk you up (oh!), uptown funk you up (oh!)
Uptown funk you up

The Chorus

(Alto Sax)

Puttin’ on my top back
Bumpin’ Uptown Funk (Uh)
You got a real smooth operator
Smooth operator (Oh)
You got a real smooth operator
Smooth operator (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)

The Bridge

The bridge of the song is 8 measures long and it starts on measure 25. This is where Bruno Mars comes in and he starts singing. The last 4 measures of the bridge are exactly the same as the 4 measures before it. The only difference is that at the very end of the bridge, there is a pick-up to measure 1 of the last chorus.
