hip kids

this is the way i feel.
this is the rhythm.
this is the tone i use.
let it go in you.
deep, raining blue.
straight, running through.
you let it into you.
let it move you.
come on, come on.
hip kids, serving coffee and juice.
dinosaurs control the news.
i know a fine woman; she can sing the blues.
and a drummer man, he always beats the truth.

watch out,
mad girl got it out for me.
that's life, though-
some sad, some sweet.
wanna build a big boat, man, built to float.
if the rain falls, we can all hop on.

what's wrong
with your feet, start hopping
how long
until this boat starts rocking?
what's wrong?
feel the beat start dropping.

how long
until the earth starts shaking?
what's wrong?
feel your hips start quaking.
how long
until your heart starts breaking?

this is the way i feel.
ode to the rhythm.
ode to the tone i use.
let it go in you.
let it go with you.
what's wrong
with your feet, start hopping
how long
until this boat starts rocking?
what's wrong?
feel the beat start dropping.
how long
until the earth starts shaking?
what's wrong?
feel your hips start quaking.
how long
until your heart starts making love?
this is the way i feel.
this is the rhythm.
this is the tone i use.
let it go in you.
deep, raining blue.
straight, running through.
you let it into you.
let it move you.
come on, come on.
all aboard!
this boat's leaving.
welcome to the S.S. humanity.
