Specifically in the chorus of this song, the lyrics are almost like commands e.g. "Stop right now" They use strong verbs towards the audience. However with these lyrics there are specific typical dances that the Spice Girls use. Once again with the phrase "Stop right now," the dance move is a hand out like a police officer would do in everyday life. These are simple dance moves that have been created through the lyrics. This gives the video and song together a joyful mood and very jively.
