Rockin' In The Suburbs

(album: Running Still - 2011)

You gotta, you gotta, you gotta
You gotta open up your mind to another side.
Another place where the faces smile.
Gimme a line for words are birds they're flying away.
Sometimes, when I got too much to say.
My heart is a pumping, like a rabbit with a foot that's a thumping.
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh

Well I get a little sick of distractions
Growing up in a world of attractions
This is it, this is what I want to do now.
Just a singing and a playing this a tune somehow,
Somewhere, there's a pair of eardrums.
And they shiver to the rhythm of a tom. tom.
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh

If you can't switch off but you wanna get off well let's go
(Rocking in the suburbs).
If you wanna rock, rock, don't stop 'til the cows come home
(Rocking in the suburbs).
Everybody's got a party in their body, it's a one man show
(Rocking in the suburbs)
Wow!

Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh

Now I feel that the weight is a lifting.
There's a feeling shifting.
And the sun is a shining high in the sky like nylon,
There's a file on everybody wearing the same skin.
Needing the same thing it's amazing and it's happening.
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh

And I'm told that the tables are turning
There's a people a learning, the curiosity is burning.
If it hurts you can say that you heard it.
So 'Mum' is the word. I'm a little bird with a big secret.
Can I trust you to keep it, please?
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh

If you can't switch off but you wanna get off well let's go
(Rocking in the suburbs).
If you wanna rock, rock, don't stop 'til the cows come home
(Rocking in the suburbs).
Everybody's got a party in their body, it's a one man show
(Rocking in the suburbs)
Wow!

There's a time, there's a place, there's a season.
There's a reason for leaving the beliefs you believe in.
When you're freezing the feeling.
And you're frozen to the bone.
So, give it away like a chilli pepper told you.
Give it up before the f*cker controls you.
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh
Ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh, ah, ah, ahh

If you can't switch off but you wanna get off well let's go
(Rocking in the suburbs).
If you wanna rock, rock, don't stop 'til the cows come home
(Rocking in the suburbs).
Everybody's got a party in their body, it's a one man show
(Rocking in the suburbs).
If you can't switch off but you wanna get off well let's go
(Rocking in the suburbs).
Wow!
