Cameo - Shake Your Pants Lyrics

Summer 1980, this was the jam back in New Orleans WXEL-105FM.

That camera zoom and pan from 2:18 - 2:27 is smooth as fuck.

Still Funky!!!!

They actually paid someone to pick out this wardrobe....

The first minute of this video is hilarious. Song is a classic.... you know that eyeeeeee

CAMEO!💕💖💕

This & "I Just Want To Be" are my favorite CAMEO hits!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Hmmm THOSE OUTFITS!!!!!

I Was 11 when Stepfather Took Me To MY first Concert....At the MECCA ARENA. If Course It WAS the Original CAMEO! Like 12 men came in The Stage Dressed Line THIS! I Was in front Row Jamming...they pulled ME on Stage! I Been On Stage Ever Since. That Was in 1982 🤣🤣🤣🤣😆😋🖤👑

Whose here in 2019!? Lol they showed out!!🙌🏾😁🎵

Wayne Cooper's vocals though.....geez

Wayne copper is not in peace he lived his life unrighteously, so he's suffering in his own abyss. As will the rest of them will be soon.

Cameo is "Super Group" from 1974 until now ! Its not about what they wearing ? but the funk, the entainment, and music professional

Wow strong masculine and feminine energy at the same time...😲😲😲💯🔥👊

Sang that

🎸🥁 I saw them in Berkeley 1980! 🤘

Good lordtt the gayest outfits balls all crunch😐😐

I can imagine them all at the back of the bus kissing and hugging

Vanity on the cover of " Strange" is classic!!!!

The original spandex twerkers...
Talk about freedom of sexuality...
Gwan with it cameo.....
Do...Your... Thang... what a funkin TUNE.. 2019

I like cameo and all.but shit has to be some of the gayest shit of all time yooo.wtf did i just watch

Quite possibly the gayest thing I've seen in all my years

LoL im like wtf o no

Lol they was to cold,stll start a party jumpin

L.S.D is a hell of a drug!

Ok Guys, I'm need at least 6 of you who aren't afraid of colorful spandex to form a group with me.

Good Lord, those outfits!!!!!

Good Lord, those outfits!!!!!

So gay 🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮

Music is good ...but Dem clothes mad sus lol 😂 😂

You don’t know anything. This is pure 80s. I guarantee you too, this was aimed at ladies like me.

I was 12 when I started listening to Cameo in 1978...Im now 53

I bet b4 and after making this video all of them went and shared a huge bowel of uncut pure cocaine 😁

Lmao im here from facebook

How often do you see the lead singer on the drums?

Man! I hate the fact these OG Kings of Funk were doin this JAM in some tight ass disco/yoga pants!!! LOL

Mark Borgeson Why? They look good to me.

1980 we still had Jimmy Carter lol

Wayne Cooper look like the dude who bullied Michael on Good Times...

these cats were not gay

Back when band members would wear exactly what their manager suggested. hehehe.

THEY WERE DONE THE DAY WORD UP CAME OUT PLENTY OF FUNK BEFORE THEN NUMBER 2 ON THE FUNK METER AFTER PARLIMENT

They jamming but gay as fuck

larry played the drums love this cutt...

Those girl on the album covers "alligator woman" others were Vanity.

Why didn't they fix Wayne Cooper(RIP) teeth?

Umm, they were dancing , dipping, and grinding, umm, just a bit girly like in this video. I love Cameo, ... but I'm just sayin. 🤪

As Jimi said..., “fly Yo Freak Flag”. As George said, “free Yo mind and Yo Ass will follow”. Hell to the yeah. Do you, people!🔥🔥🔥🔥✊🏾

Spandex, Jumping, Jimny, Christmas!!! Shake your damn pants.

Love Cameo but lol ..... Dem outfits got me looking sideways 👀 ..... Sus shit

💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿

This is some real jumpin out yer seat n funkin music😎

Before they were pop!!?

I’m loving this video oh umm yeah the song too lol

Cold Piece Baby!!!

cameo were definately. are definately one of the best funk bands of all time. but what on earth possessed them to be as gay as possible in their videos? i mean what were they trying to prove with these outfits and dance moves? surely women didnt get excited over this. only gays. not that im being anti gay. just is the image they are trying to set here is a bit weird

Larry blackmon drums!

Whole outfit is a rubber band.😂🎸👍💯🤣

Great dance music. Smokin! Ahh, memories.

Look at all this black meat shaking that ass .Black men have some sexy bodys

LGBT before we even knew what it was

I just got word that Gloria Vanderbilt (may she rest in Heaven) died and i felt the need to hear this. I loved this song as a child because I had my Sasson, Jordache and Gloria Vanderbilt jeans. My Mom had me stylin' back in the day:)

We were sooooo gay back then!🤔🤔🤔😂😂😂😂😂

Do I see Queens!!!???😟

I never knew Larry Blackman played drums but that guy was a hell of a talent. Originally that group consisted of 10 guys the last time I saw them together they were down to five.

Then Larry playing drums and singing lead!

I went hog wild at the roller rink was like a divine intervention!!! That's when I went total funk

The jam that made me bust out and DANCE!!

Gay this gay that just enjoy the damn funk!

How our daddys used to be up in the club back in the day 😂

My daddy used to wear this song out so much that I hated it but, now I truly appreciate it!

I can’t stop viewing this performance. They seemed so frigging happy to be performing that it makes me smile. Cameo is my favorite group, however I was a fan during the Word Up era, which is my genre. Their songs are timeless and even today, playing a Cameo song can still liven up any party or dance floor.

This was Soo ahead of it's time pure FUNK

Bought the record before I knew there was a video. Unlike kids now. If the video isn't cool, or looks 'gay', they wont buy the record.

My feel good song 💃🏿

I'm sorry David Oliver song is called Ms

This is the CAMEO that I liked best allot of people now talk about the outfit but that common for that time .Any way they always put on a heck of a show and Mr Cooper and that falsetto voice in my own humble opinion he was as good as any of the best legendary high pitch singers him and David Oliver I dare anyone to check him out a song called Mrs trust me they just didn't get the same fame

That's right folks. Nearly 4 decades ago, someone convinced 9 dudes that this was a good idea. Folks, THIS happened and YOU let it. Good night.

😹 I think this is the gayest thing I’ve seen this week. The guy in the red bodysuit in the front with the dreads was feelin’ it. Respect to Cameo.

I saw them in concert not long after this album was out. To this day, every time I hear this song, I shake my pants just like they do.  In fact, I'm doing it in my chair at work right now!

Wayne Cooper Will Be missed! #goodvibes Back then know what I'm talking about when I say this.. that People Didn't Judge back then at that point we all straight while we get The groove Today in this generation is getting out of hand.

Their other bad ass Grove was FLIRT

Larry playing the drums and singing lead!! Not easy to do!!!

Honestly...I didn't think they were gay and all until I saw the comments

Somebody wanted to see them shake more than they pants with them figure skating outfits on.😁😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😢

Show this to someone without sound and without context

And Larry on drums and singing lead?? Wow like I said bad ass mofos

I think not many groups today can bring it like this!!! You all hear me!!!! Badass mofos!!!!

Wtf bad ass band they kill it!!

Real instruments

I love oldschool

YO!!!! KISS dang near 70 and they still perform in tights

So nobody not going to say anything about those damn outfits???

Came here because of unplugem. Check him out on YouTube.

Most underrated band in pop history. This is -- can't believe Im' saying it -- on a level with Ellington!

This is what funk sounds like., those were the days cameo underappreciated. But lov forever

This song brings back many many memories from my roller skating days in the 80’s!

Still on Cameo over 40 yrs. later....

Gayyyyyyy

Towel and deodorant needed here! Extra funk at it's best here!

CAMEOSIS!!!!!!!!!!

Holla!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I fucking love this

Nathan leftanent can’t dance at all but that what makes him unique in the group. Cameo is great
