Live recording, Mar. 23, 2007:  
Rehearsal version (saxes for voices):  



When you're on your way to fame,
And all the pun-dits start to speak your name,
Then the came-ra points at you,
There's on-ly one thing left to do.
 
Say "Ma-ca-ca"
You'll sink just like a ro-cka,
Your friends will be in sho-cka,
To see how quick-ly you can drop,
Say "Ma-ca-ca"
It on-ly takes "Ma-ca-ca,"
And watch your fal-ling sto-cka,
Say "Ma-ca-ca."
 
When you're on a migh-ty roll,
You're cli-mbing up and up in e-v'ry poll,
Then you're com-fy with the crowd,
You go and say it right out loud.
 
Say "Ma-ca-ca,"
He's loo-king kind-a fun-ky,
So call the guy a mon-key,
You'll be a-mazed how things can change,
Say "Ma-ca-ca,"
It on-ly takes "Ma-ca-ca,"
You shoul-da stuck a so-cka,
Say "Ma-ca-ca."
 
key change
 
So you've tum-bled down the hole,
And flushed a gol-den fu-ture down the bowl,
Go and thank the kid you slurred
And all it took was just a word.
 
Say "Ma-ca-ca"
The laughs are all on you, boob!
You're such a hit on You-Tube,
You o-pened wide and stuck it in,
Say "Ma-ca-ca,"
A-no-ther clue-less jo-cka
Who's run-ning out the clo-cka,
Say "Ma-ca-ca."
 
dance sequence, one full verse long
 
key change
 
Say "Ma-ca-ca,"
You sank just like a ro-cka,
Your friends are still in sho-cka,
To see how qui-ckly you could drop,
Say "Ma-ca-ca,"
"I made it up!"
"Ma-ca-ca,"
"My mo-ther nev--!!"
"Ma-ca-ca,"
Say "Ma-ca-ca."
 
Say "Ma-ca-ca"
Say "Ma-ca-ca"
Say "Ma-ca-ca!"
