Need help identifying a song

Hey everybody-

This is a pretty common lyric, so I'm having trouble identifying the correct song. However, it's a hip-hop song with the lyric:

"Throw your arms in the air, and wave them like you just don't care."

It may help a little to know that they way it's pronounced it more like:

"Throw your arms in the ay-ur, and wave them like you just don't cay-ur."

I know this is difficult, but can anybody help me out here?

TIA.

That would be every song ever performed at a Hip Hop concert.

LOL.

I thought maybe with the odd pronunciation that maybe it would be possible.

No, it's not funky, it's more hip-hopy.

The first thing that came to my mind is Bloodhound Gang's "Fire Water Burn".

Come on, party people
Throw your hands in the air
Come on, party people
Wave 'em like you don't care

That's André's unmistakeable weird little drawl, no doubts about it.

"Wheelz of Steel" (track 4) is my favorite off that album.

That's funny, because when I posted this thread I thought there was less than a 5% chance that anybody would be able to identify the song just because that's such a common lyric. If it weren't for the odd drawl, I wouldn't have even bothered posting, but I was hoping somebody could identify that drawl.

That is a great song . . . I'm thinking about getting the whole album now.

No problem. I would get the whole album if I were you. It is great from start to finish. While I enjoyed their latest album, their older shit is the best.
