Pick Up The Tempo
People are saying
Time'll take care of people like me
I'm living too fast
They say I can't last much longer
But little they see
Their thoughts of me are my savior
And little they know
That the beat oughta go just a little faster
So pick up the tempo just a little and take it on home
The singer ain't singin'
And the drummer's been draggin' too long
Time'll take care of itself
So just leave time alone
Pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home
Well, I'm wild and I'm mean
I'm creatin' a scene, I'm goin' crazy
I'm good and I'm bad
I'm happy and I'm sad and I'm lazy
I'm quiet and I'm loud
And I'm gatherin' a crowd, I like gravy
'Bout half off the wall
But I learned it all in the Navy
So pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home
The singer ain't singin'
And the drummer's been draggin' too long
Time'll take care of itself
So just leave time alone
And pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home
(Yeah, thank you, oh man)
(Alright, thank you, Bruce)
(That's a good one)
