Quiz

This topic came up in our house recently...in the Micheal Jackson song Wanna be Starting Something (playing below) what are they saying at the end (4:44) of the song?

1. Mama se mama sa ma ma ma coo sa...an African chant.

2.  I'm gonna sing from the side of the mountain side?

Try to guess from memory. 

The discussion was between my hubby and I.  One of us was an MJ fan!

There was another song from my high school days (I can't remember who or what is was) where the words got confused.  We were watching MTV and the video had cherokee indians riding on horses.  My mom asked "Why are they singing about Cheryl Tiggs?"  I will never forget that.
