Yo-yo
A yo-yo (also spelled yoyo) is a toy which in its simplest form is an object consisting of an axle connected to two disks, and a length of string looped around the axle, similar to a slender spool. It is played by holding the free end of the string known as the handle (usually by inserting one finger in a slip knot) allowing gravity or the force of a throw to spin the yo-yo and unwind the string (similar to how a pullstring works), then allowing the yo-yo to wind itself back to one's hand, exploiting its spin (and the associated rotational energy). This is often called "yo-yoing". First made popular in the 1920s, yo-yoing remains a popular pastime of many generations and cultures. It was first invented in ancient Greece.
In the simplest play, the string is intended to be wound on the spool by hand; The yo-yo is thrown downwards, hits the end of the string, then winds up the string toward the hand, and finally the yo-yo is grabbed, ready to be thrown again. One of the most basic tricks is called the sleeper, where the yo-yo spins at the end of the string for a noticeable amount of time before returning to the hand.
Columns (juggling)
In toss juggling, columns, also known as One-up Two-up, is a juggling trick or pattern where the balls are thrown upwards without any sideways motion. The simplest version involves having three balls, with two going up simultaneously on either side, followed by one going up in the middle. One way to accomplish this is to juggle 2 balls in one hand and one ball in the other, so one hand has to move faster and further than in a regular pattern (cascade), whilst the other remains almost stationary. The hand juggling the center ball can alternate with each repeat to make the pattern symmetric.
Variations
There are many variations to this simple three-ball pattern. Some involve alternating the placement of the 'lone' inside throw, while others involve the two outside throws.
The 'lone' ball may be to either side of the two balls, and can have its position in relation to them altered whilst juggling the pattern by throwing it not at a vertical angle, or moving the hand holding it when it has been caught. This ball can also be thrown quickly from one hand to the other as in a box pattern, whilst the other two balls are in midair.

Body Work
by: Yo Yo[Intro]
Uh, uh, stop. Stop, don't...
Don't ever do that... No...
Because, I know if I let you it's gon' be all around town
And I just don't have my business sounding like that
You know what, you don't know how to keep no secret
I mean when this song is gon' be out, people are gonna know my sh's the bomb
And I'm not worried about that. Uh, uh, no, stop
Don't, don't, stop, stop. Aight, you gon' get yourself in some trouble
Alright let's do it...
[Verse 1]
Damn, this a trip I know he wanted to get at me
Jumped into my hoopdie wanna feel something ???
Knockin' for a head of this bump...
Flava I give it to him now if he don't tell later
Patience baby, don't rush, it's been too long and I just can't give it up
It's vigin material, gotta watch what I'm doin'
I can't hand it to everyone just because they rulin'
But I let you cause I sweat you and your style is unique
You just don't have your business all in the street
So people, slide it in and press play
Let me take you for a ride around my way, okay
[Chorus: Teena Marie]
All you do is push it in, then you push it out
That's the dance we call the push
If you got it let me hear you shout [x2]
...Push out, and, push out, and, push out, and push out, and in
Go 'head, go 'head let your body work
Go 'head let your body jerk
[Verse 2]
Hot of the wax, wait till you hit the back
The B-Side is the bomb, word to Mom...
Check the material, juicy like cereal
'95 flava, a year later...
You know it's poppin and ain't no stoppin' my beat
The techniques you use are those of a freak
Sit back and observe, right next to the kerb
Gettin' it on, Daddy got nerve...
You know I let cause I sweat you and your style is unique
You just don't have your business all in the street
So people, slide it in and press play
Let me take you for a ride around my way, okay
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Be honest with me when it's done
Don't be callin' me Mommy if I ain't number one
Aight son, what you think, tell me if this shit stinks
So let you here before we hit the streets
Do I... have enough funk in my trunk
To make a fella do right or make a fella do wrong
Was it better from the back on every track
I won't be offended if you say this shit is wack
See, you know I let you cause I sweat you and your style is unique
You just don't have your business all in the street
So people, slide it in and press play
Let me take for a ride around my way, okay
