People are saying that times take care
|
Of people like me
|
And that I'm living too fast and they say I won't last
|
Much longer
|
But little they see that their thoughts of me
|
Is my savior
|
And little they know the beat ought to go
|
A little faster
|
|
So pick up the tempo
|
Pick up the tempo
|
|
So pick up the tempo just a little bit
|
And take it on home
|
The singer ain't singing
|
And the drummer's been draggin'
|
Too long
|
Time will take care of itself so just leave time alone
|
And pick up the tempo just a little
|
And take it on home
|
|
I'm wild and I'm mean, I'm creating a scene
|
I'm goin' crazy
|
I'm good and I'm bad, I'm happy and sad
|
And I'm lazy
|
I'm quiet and loud and I'm creatin' a crowd
|
And I like rabies
|
I'm 'bout half off the wall but I learned it all
|
In the Navy
|
|
So pick up the tempo
|
Pick up the tempo
|
So pick up the tempo
|
And take it on home
|

Pick Up the Tempo
