Pick Up The Tempo

People are saying that time
Will 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 singing
And the drummer's been dragging 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 creating a scene I'm going crazy
I'm good and I'm bad
I'm happy and sad and I'm lazy

I'm quiet and I'm loud
And I'm gathering a crowd, I like gravy
About 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 singing
And the drummer's been dragging 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

Oh man

All right!

Thank you, Bruce!
