Lyrics
[V.1]
Deep down inside... It helps you stand tall
If you give it a break, you'll probably fall...
Down to the ground
One horrible sight... you don't wanna see
It lies down at night, but never watches TV
So turn down the sound!
[Chorus]
Shake it, rattle it... On through the night
Dance to the music... Oh yeah!
Shake it, rattle it... Make your feet light
Move to a magical spell... Oh yeah!
[Bridge]
Don't make no bones about it
Can't really live without it, so say... can you see??
You're lookin' through me
[V. 2]
Always has your back, so let me get to the point...
Treat it like your best bud, don't pop yourself outta joint
So just take it slow...
Gets under your skin, but never means you no harm
Don't try to make it alone or--hey!--you've bought the farm!
So don't let it go...
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
