What are the lyrics to Missy Eliot's "Work It"? I mean I can find the lyrics except everyone has a different idea of what she's saying in the reversed part of the chorus. I heard from "same down flip it and reverse it" to "it's flur namma namma flan dan ta bo" (which it totally crazy- I don't think she made up some language!)and some just leave it out all together please help!I posted the question earlier but i wrote e-amil address incorrectly.

The part you're interested in is this:

Is it worth it, let me work it
I put my thang down flip it and reverse it
(Backwards bit)

The backwards bit is the previous line (ie I put...reverse it)
backwards.

Makes sense doesn't it! I found out by sampling the whole track and reversing it on my 'puter. There are also some backwards orgasm noises but if you play the track forward they're much less obvious

i think ur right john lewis if you play it backwards ,
you might know the gay part that Missy Eliot says
