bookmark_borderFaster (Pick Up The Pace)

LYRICS
I thought I was winning the race
When I heard a voice say, “Pick up the pace!”

Are you aware
The turtle doesn’t always beat the hare
In fact, only one in a million beat him there

Time to put on the shoe and tie the lace
Keep the foot out of the mouth on my face
Time to pick up the pace

You invented the clock (tick-tock)
Now its slave, you work
The ship has left the dock
Spoon’s run away with the fork
Workin’ for the clock (tick-tock)

LYRICS
There’s some commotion
And, it’s staying in motion
Quick like Isaac
“An object in motion stays in….”
Loco-commotion (x3)
Notion

Tangled up emotion
That’s staying in motion
Quick like Isaac
“An object in motion stays in….”
Loco-commotion (x3)
Notion

Some sort-of love potion
Accelerating motion
Quick like Isaac
An outside force of course
Loco-commotion (x3)

LYRICS
Do you find it hard to believe
The air’s not fit to breath
Do you find it spoils the fun
Stayin’ out of the sun

Can you please tell me, “What do you think of that?”
Can you please tell me, “Will you tip your hat?”

Do you hope they’ll relieve
… unwilling to receive
Do you pray someone will say,
“I’m here to save the day!”

Can you please tell me, “What do you think of that?”
Can you please tell me, “Will you tip your hat?”

Do you know what I mean about the rivers and streams
Waterfowl run afoul ain’t no “merrily dreams”

Can you please tell me, “What do you think of that?”
Can you please tell me, “Will you tip your hat?”

I’d love to save the world
Bring happiness to every kid
Though the statements bold
I’d love to save… I’d love to save…

Chorus
I’d love to save the world
So one day our history’s told
I’d love to save the world
So one day our history’s heard

Let love be unfurled
Spilling over ’till hatred’s rid
The saying never gets old
I’d love to save… I’d love to save…

Chorus

With humanity behave
From the cradle to our grave
The saying never gets old
I’d love to save… I’d love to save…

LYRICS
Putting what’s right in the light
Can’t say black’s in the gray
Doing harm out of spite
Frolic about as we may
… as we might

Don’t go “But, what do I know?”
We know what’s wrong and right
Don’t go “But, what do I know?”
We know the essence of difference

Yielding daylight contrasting night
Providing freedom for us to say
Giving justly without slight
Thankful for each and every day

LYRICS
It’s the matter of “is”

There I was just sitting… minding my own business
When the voice from above spoke to me
“Why would anyone want tranquility?”

There’d be no satisfaction in habitation
There’d be no thrill in the strive to stay alive
Just try to not let the thrill overspill and kill

How can I stay sitting in the business of success
Balancing the scale between worthless and excess
On this day, I heard Her say to me
“You know my availability?”
I’m aware you’re always there
“Record this for all posterity”
I won’t rest ’till I do my best

If you can crack a smile
The beasts turn more mild
Now let’s dance a while

And a 1 and a 2

And Skip to My Lou
Put your left foot in
Put your left foot out

LYRICS
By the way, in the end game
It doesn’t matter… we’re all dead

Nothing you can do…
Can’t stop the clock
Better change our view
What never dies? Rock!

By the way, in the end game
It doesn’t matter… we’re all dead
No, it ain’t no crying shame
Not a matter to dread

It’s not that far
When you’re a rising star
And start shinning down
You become a son
You can brighten the day
Of those on the way
Illuminate the night
… we just might

LYRICS
Maybe we can live together
Maybe we can live in peace
None of us live forever
Eventually we seize and cease

As long as we’re alive together
Might as well give peace a chance
To ensure a clever endeavor
We’ve gotta join in the dance

Maybe we can end the fighting
Just say “no more” to war
I mean… since our life is fleeting
It’s our legacy that will endure

Chorus

Perhaps we can save the children
From our adult hypocrisy
By remembering how we begin
Created image… will set free

The politicians are robbing the bank
And who do we have left to thank
The world economy is in the tank
As the hopes of children fell in… they sank

That’s the way it goes
If you’re not on your toes
That’s the way it can go
When you’re not in the know

I the name of God they strike and kill
Try and swallow that bitter, bitter pill
In the name of greed we lose freewill
Just a matter of time until… until

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — Capo 1
C Em
D A Em

A song about ionization. Negative ions are called anions. Negative ions are odorless, tasteless, and invisible molecules that are inhaled in abundance under certain conditions — such as while taking a shower or after a thunderstorm. When you breath them in, your mood is boosted and your pain reduced.
