Get Up And Go Lyrics

Dreaming I can see the sun
Long gone with time to run
Make my day, come on let me out
Can I open the door and begin to shout

Now I'd like to know
Can we get up and go?
Now I'd like to know
Can we get up and go?

Take my money and have a ball
It suits you right to have it all
Aiming for the bottom's never been my choice
Can I open the door and begin to voice

Now I'd like to know
Can we get up and go?
Now I'd like to know
Can we get up and go?

I'd like to know
I'd like to know
I'd like to know
I'd like to know

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

this is one of my fave songs atm.. from the Eon advert! the glockenspeil or something the whole way through totally carries the song. i dont think it really means much, apart from maybe he feels a bit suffocated by whoever he's with, "dreaming i can see the sun" and "can i open the door and begin to voice" just an all round lovely song!

This is such a gorgeous song. Grabbed my attention right away with the melody but the lyrics are so bitter sweet. He obviously has had enough with a partner who seems to have used him. "Take my money and have a ball if it suits you right then have it all." The detail dedicated to the music is what won me over though, guitars, violins, cellos just on the surface but then its accompanied by the glockenspeil and a bell! Not to mention the drums quietly holding all together. Thumbs up Broadcast 2000.
