From Saturday Night Live:
Justin Timberlake: Yo! We ain't goin' nowhere, bizzy-o-o-o-o-otch!
Britney Spears: We're not going either, y'all!
Caitlin: Yeah, so what are you gonna do about it, Justin, huh?
Justin Timberlake: Well, I don't know, maybe.. bust a move? [ the two groups gasp in amazement at the building intensity ]
Britney Spears: You're gonna bust a move?! That's funny! 'Cause I thought I taught you how to bust a move, back in Orlando! Okay, everyone, let's clear this mess out!
Not being sufficiently hip, I can't make heads nor tails out of this. A quick Googling seems to indicate that to "bust" means to do or initiate, while a "move" is an action or performance, but beyond this further elucidation is gratefully welcomed--Thanks guys

Exactly the same as when the words are reversed in order.

Nah. Move a bust is when the narcs choose a new target.

Bust a Move by Young MC (1989)
This here's a tale for all the fellas Try to do what those ladies tell us Get shot down cause you're over zealous Play hard to get an females get jealous Ok smartie, go to a party Girls are stancin the crowd is showin body A chick walks by you wish you could sex her But you're standin on the wall like you was Poindexter Next days function, high class luncheon Food is served and you're stone cold munchin' Music comes on, people start to dance But then you ate so much you nearly split your pants A girl starts walkin, guys start gawkin' Sits down next to you and starts talkin' Says she wanna dance cus she likes the groove So come on fatso and just bust a move
You're on a mission and you're wishin' someone could cure you're lonely condition You're lookin for love in all the wrong places Not fine girls just ugly faces From frustration first inclination Is to become a monk and leave the situation But every dark tunnel has a lighter hope So don't hang yourself with a celibate rope New movie's showin... so you're goin Could care less about the five you're blowin Theatre gets dark just to start the show When you spot a fine woman sittin in the front row She's dressed in yellow, she says "Hello, Come sit next to me you fine fellow" You run over there without a second to loose And what comes next, hey bust a move
If you want it baby you've got it Just bust a move
In the city ladies look pretty Guys tell jokes so they can seem witty Tell a funny joke just to get some play Then you try to make a move and she says "no way" Girls a fakin' ... goodness sakin' They want a man who brings home the bacon Got no money and you got no car Then you got no woman and there you are Some girls are sophistic... materialistic Looking for a man makes them opportunistic They're lyin on the beach perpetratin a tan So that a brother with money can be their man So on the beach you're strollin'... real high-rollin' Everything you have is your's and not stolen A girl runs up with somethin to prove So don't just stand there, bust a move
Your best friend Harry has a brother Larry In five days from now he's gonna marry He's hopin you can make it there if you can 'Cause in the ceremony you'll be the best man You say "neato"... check your libido And roll to the church in your new tuxedo The bride walks down just to start the wedding And there's one more girl you won't be getting So you start thinkin, then you start blinkin A bride maid looks and thinks that you're winkin She thinks you're kinda cute so she winks back And now you're feelin really fine cus the girl is stacked Reception's jumpin, bass is pumpin Look at the girl and your heart starts thumpin Says she wants to dance to a different groove Now you know what to do G, bust a move
Interesting trivia on this song: Flea from the band Red Hot Chili Peppers plays the bass on the recording.

stancin = dancing without lifting your feet... with minimal lateral movement... standing in place dancing... waiting to be *axed to dance.

Yeah that tune won a Grammy; I think it was the first, or at least one of the first to ever be won in the Best Rap category that was created in the 90s to fit the rise in spoken word pop. Still a great record.

It was the second to win Best Rap Performance for Young MC in 1989. The first in 1988's was DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince's "Parents Just Don't Understand."
