What’s unique about the lyric is that the words are those used most often in the **Top 50 selling downloads** of this year. To illustrate how I used the **data** to write this lyric, I've color coordinatedthe words in the chorus. I used the largest words on the chart for the chorus and the smaller ones for the verses. Just so **you** know what kind of terrible awesomeness your getting in, here's a **the full song lyric**:

**The Hypebot Hit Song**  
Look, my hands gonna touch this, ain’t gonna stop me now  
Imma work this, let girls believe I really get down  
Take every chick back to New York and let them walk home  
Imma get ya name girl, call you on the telephone

**Oh baby, yeah, Imma rock your body hard—like damn** 
**Chick I wanna know, cause I get around now—like bad** 
**Love gonna stop, Imma rock your body hard—like damn** 
**Had enough tonight, I wanna break the love—like bad**

Gotta cut, get going, I’m ridin’ the world—solo  
Life party, girl, Imma romance badder, top get low  
Break forever Shawty, cause girls dance at the night show  
Don’t be rude sexy, leave your name, cause I gotta go 

**Oh baby** **, yeah, Imma rock your body hard—like damn**  
**Chick I wanna know, cause I get around now—like bad** 
**Love gonna stop, Imma rock your body hard—** **like damn**  
**Had enough tonight, I wanna break the love—** **like** **bad**

 \[**Breakdown/Bridge:**\]  
Everybody now, hey, get down, and let the chicks sing!

**Oh baby, yeah, Imma rock your body hard—like damn** 
**Boy I wanna know, cause I get around now—like bad** 
**Love gonna stop, Imma rock your body hard—like damn**  
**Had enough tonight, I wanna break the love—like bad** 

To partake, write the music and **[submit your cover](http://hypebot.heroku.com/?ref=hypebot.com)** of our hit song. None of this would be possible without the **work and kindness** of our prize sponsors.
