lyrics

Blue moon
Tuned in
Tonight
Put you in that mood you like
Spirit movin' now
Loosened you up you don’t care who cares
Look at you now it’s magic
Just laughin look like an actress hey
You just wanna listen to a classic,
Bounce it like a mattress
ManI’m outa practice hey
Sick of how slow just livin's been
Hard to get right being limited
You just wanna go where the rhythm is
And be in the crowd uninhibited
You can’t lay low
Said follow me
I obey so
I’ll probably wake up holding my head
I know what I’ll get

Showstopper
Go knock um out
You’ve been like champagne
That’s shook up
For days
Showstopper
Can’t lock you down
Go get loose like you used to do

60 odd hours a week on the wheel
I know you do it but how do you deal
I see how all of that’s making you feel
Let’s move to Finland think I’m for real
Let’s let’s let’s go
First we need a drink and a rest though
Two shots now you caught your wave
Moonwalk yeah you got the stage
I know you’ve been workin'
For what you already purchased
Concerned that it wasn’t worth it
It wont serve you don’t serve it okay
That’s really all I’ll say
If I had it all I’d pay
Sick a sellin' all these days
Sick of it in all these ways
And we don’t got a lot
But for now let’s spend some

Showstopper
Go knock um out
You’ve been like champagne
That’s shook up
For days
Showstopper
Can’t lock you down
Go get loose like you used to do

Let’s call your boss and say
You’ve had your fill
If he won’t play ball
Then that tea might spill
Yeah I know that you can’t go
Still feels good having ammo
Still feels good just to plan though
Let me just shut up and dance though
