If I pick it up, can I put it down?
Whatever it is I just can't stop.
For only twenty seconds at a time it's all mine.
I got too much pressure,
Got me under its thumb,
And it's no fun, you can lose,
Now I got a choice but I can't choose.
Insistent as you are,
There's no guarantee that you'll go far.
Rock steady, if you can,
But I've never been a steady man.
People wanna shoot you down,
If you can't swim then you will drown
In sorrow.
I can't get medical attention 'til tomorrow.
Sad lands are where I live,
But that's none of your business,
You keep asking, and soon enough
The kid's gonna have to get rough.
Maybe I'm a speed king:
Push with the foot and I'm smiling,
I can glide on the love inside,
And there was you thinking that my hands were tied.
All along I saw you hoping,
I would slip and I'm not joking.
The evidence in these events
Is still your lack of common sense.
Did you really think that I would sink
Because I like another drink?
Have to get up to get down,
The remedy is in the sound.
Absurdity of your suggestion,
Leaves me asking just one question,
If you are my friend today,
Why do you wanna hear me say.
If I pick it up, can I put it down?
Whatever it is I just can't stop.
For only twenty seconds at a time it's all mine.
I got too much pressure,
Got me under its thumb,
And it's no fun, you can lose,
Now I got a choice but I can't choose.
Insistent as you are,
There's no guarantee that you'll go far.
Rock steady, if you can,
But I've never been a steady man.
People wanna shoot you down,
If you can't swim then you will drown
In sorrow.
I can't get medical attention 'til tomorrow.
Maybe I'm a speed king,
Yes I am.
Maybe I'm a speed king:
Push with the foot and I'm smiling,
I can glide on the love inside,
And there was you thinking that my hands were tied.
All along I saw you hoping
I would slip, and I'm not joking.
The evidence in these events
Is still your lack of common sense.
You could take it, I'll leave it.
You may not believe it,
But a comeback is due,
I'll send in the bail when I'm through.
