LYRICS
Candy coated popcorn, peanuts and a prize
Starting to realize
I don’t care if I never get back
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
[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
LYRICS
If your *your*…
If you’re feeling queasy
and think it’s from what ya ate for ‘sup….
Here’s what’s up
Don’t be diminished
Don’t let it be your finish
Don’t be diminished
Yo, Hubris
Play the devil’s Nemesis
If your *your*…
If you’re feeling queasy
Why not get into the our
You don’t have to spend a lifetime
It’s free the first hour
Be it sublime
Our hour is free
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”
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?
