[Verse 1]
Some people are saying that time
Will take care of people like me
That I'm living too fast
And they say I can't last much longer
But little they see
That their thoughts of me is my savior
And little they know
I might live forever
[Chorus 1]
So pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home
The singer ain't singing
And the drummer's been dragging too long
[Chorus 2]
Time'll take care of itself
So just leave time alone
And pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home
[Verse 2]
I'm wild and I'm mean
I'm creating a scene I'm going crazy
I'm good and I'm bad
And I'm happy and sad and I'm lazy
I'm quiet and I'm loud
And I'm gathering a crowd and I like gravy
About half off the wall
But I learned it all in the Navy
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
[Outro]
Yeah, pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home...
