"Tick tock, tick tock
MOOOVE . . .
Your spirit to the rhythm
Now
Don't stop."
"Slide . . .
There's a tune
Behind your mind
Telling you
LET LOOSE."
"Balls to the wall
Pull out your groove
Shake out the anxious
ABUSE
Sitting still is just a part of their ruse
. . .
Wake up you,
You're being used"
Hey Mister Metronome
Can't you turn the beat down low?
I got to focus; I don't know
How I will make my way back home
Slither, Stutter, break my bones
I've got no time for music notes
You're
TOO FAAAST. . .
. . .
"Or maybe you just need your rhythm back . . . . . . . . ."
"Turning, Twisting,
Just don't stop
Bust a move off the floor
When you hear the"
POP POP POP ! ! !
BREAK
"Where's your head at now?
Refusing;
Amusing;
Drowning every bit of sound"
"Counting out your moments
That's cute.
Lost in your own head
What you gonna do?"
Tick tock . . .
Click click click click click
Thump, thump, thump, thump
Thump thump thump . . .
Clickclickclick
"White Noise"
. . .
Let's hear it.
Hey Mister Metronome
Please don't beat me up no more
I've got a lot of bills to pay
A good life costs feelings a way
Restless, Running out my mind
My dreams are taking all my time
I'm
GONNA CRACK . . .
"Or maybe you just need your rhythm back. . . . . . . . . ."
It cannot keep
Up like this.
There is no future
lyricist
In me. . .
"You just need to move your feet"
STEP OFF!
. . .
I don't need no sound.
I'm doing fine
Down on the ground
Leave me alone
Your getting loud
IT'S TOO LATE!
"That's not what your lyrics say"
"Hey YOU,
Just get out your head
Talking shit,
Try me instead.
You want, you feel, you yearn, you fear
You think too much,
Now be a dear
And shut the chatter
The flow won't stop
You can move to the movement
Or get dropped.
Check out the dance floor
Heads bop
Feet that clammer
Hands that chop
Everywhere you look
There's a musical number
Now give up the war, friend
And let's,
Tick tock"
Hey Mister Metronome
How could I have been so wrong
Turn it up, I think I found my home
No one stopping me no more
I've never seen so clear before
Good vibes got me up on the floor
But this time,
. . .
"Let's DANCE"
I think I'll the rhythm another chance.
