Pick it up. Hurry up son. Eat on the run if you wanna get done.
|
Greed, speed, where does it lead you?
|
Wanna succeed? You thinking you need to?
|
But are you really sure?
|
|
It's a lot to endure, but I got me a cure.
|
Slow it down! Slow it down, yea.
|
Slow it down.
|
Take your time and you'll find your time has a meaning.
|
Easy now.
|
Catch those sounds of your heartbeat before it's leaving.
|
|
You say you want satisfaction,
|
Try standing away from the action,
|
Get some traction between you and the scenery.
|
|
Sail away,
|
Not too fast, it don't last, just thought I would mention.
|
Day by day,
|
See that view, it's for you, just pay some attention.
|
|
Forget about competition, your due for an incommission,
|
Stop your wishing, you won't get there by dreaming.
|
|
Slow it down.
|
Slow it down, yea.
|
Take your time.
|
Even Einsten reclined, designing his theory.
|
Doing fine.
|
Make it flow, let it go, you'll see it more clearly.
|
|
You're looking for bigger and greater,
|
And counting on sooner or later.
|
That's the way, kid around, gettin' weary.
|
|
Slow it down.
|
Slow it down.
|
Slow it down.
|
Slow it down, yea.
|
Slow it down, slow it down.
