Candy coated popcorn, peanuts and a prize
Starting to realize

If there is substance lack… there of
Need more love
Poor/pour on the love
’cause it’s 1, 2, 3 strikes you’re out
Been found about
Your’ old ball game is nuts
Not sane
Blood and guts

LYRICS
Ain’t no joke
Going for broke
… when you’re broke

Going for broke

Not your average bloke
When going for broke
A bloke of a different colour
Let’s here ya holler

When you’re chained, bound and cuffed
Then you’ll know how rough

When you’re broke…
No, it ain’t no joke
Going for broke

When the going get rough
The rough gets tough

LYRICS
[prelude]
Hit the buttons
Twist the dials
Turn the knobs

But, but, but
Pushing buttons

[intro]
Live from KingArthur.com
Got the microphone
Keyboards and synthesizers
(What’s the difference you tell me)
We got ourselves some mixers… and effects…. and some recording
Ya… and a little light… just in case you want to….
But most importantly for this song called, “Pushing buttons”
We have buttons
Pushing buttons

[song]
Twisting knobs
Pushing Buttons
Turn a couple dials
Trying to create the smiles
Contagious to all of us
The Smiles

Pushing buttons

Yeah, pushing buttons
Just pushing buttons

Pushing buttons
Twisting knobs
Trying to make the heart throb
Turning dials
Creating smiles
Pushing buttons

Push
Hugh
Ya gotta push… huh!

If you want something to happen
Then….
Push the button
Yeah, push the button

and turn the dial
and twist the knobs
and make the heart throb
and dials turn the smiles

if it’s hurtin’
soothin’
pushin’
the botton
go ahead
push
push for all of us
push for all of us

176 keys on the piano
Helps give you surround stereo
The double neck guitar
Bound to take you twice as far

The, the, the size may be scary
It’s all part of the big band theory

Let me tell you a story,
5-string bass
To melt your face
Even a timpani drum
Just for rhythm section fun

(Though) the size may be scary
It’s all part of the big band theory

That’s my story

LYRICS
Was she serious when she said
Serious dumpster fire ahead?
The Boulevard’s shut down
How we gonna get around?

Was she serious?
A serious dumpster fire
Seriously?
It sounds funny to me

How could civilization transpire
To the point of a “serious” dumpster fire?
That’s what the lady on the radio said
“Hello. This is your radio…
Traffic update”
At any rate, she went on to state
“The Boulevard is shut down
You’ll have to find a way around.”
Then, like the town crier
She said, “serious dumpster fire”

LYRICS
You know that you are out of touch
Does it bother you much?

For way too long
You’ve been going wrong
(going, going, going, gone)
You’re out of touch

Are you out of touch
Does it bother you much

You sit and rap
You call that rap
You call that crap?
You try to rhyme
But, it doesn’t work… most of the time

You’re out of touch
Way too much
Then, again
Way too often

Check out
Outside of your shell
Out of your living hell

You’re way out of touch
Does it bother you much?

Have you heard the news
You’re giving them the blues
With your lack of comprehension
Your lack of attention
Your lack of satisfaction

You’re out of touch
Does it bother you much?

Last chance

If you knew this was your last chance
Would you take the opportunity to dance?
If you knew this was the last dance
Would you take the opportunity
Would you take the chance?

Let’s not let the opportunity lapse
Let’s not let all our future drain into the past
Let’s take the opportunity to dance

Dance!

Dance yourself right out of those pants
Dance
Forget about the politicians and their rants
Forget about all that silly nonsense
Come on and dance

What if you knew this was your last chance
Last chance
Last dance
Last call
For ya’ll to dance?
