歌曲 | Slow the Flow |
歌手 | Ugly Duckling |
专辑 | Bang For The Buck |
作曲 : Cooper, McFarland, Pleasant | |
It's half past 8 and you're late for work | |
Your stopped in gridlock and you're berserk | |
Put in overtime 5 days a week | |
Pullin' out your hair for stress relief | |
But you gotta compete so you get no sleep, | |
You want the good life but it don't come cheap | |
Climbin to the top of the totem pole, | |
You'll fall and break your neck man slow the flow | |
Now I'm from southern California | |
Home of the laid back | |
We don't go lookin' for a needle in a haystack | |
And I say that | |
In a subdued mood | |
Kick it on the beach, eat a little mexican food | |
But you, I understand, | |
What's the rush? | |
All flushed | |
Mad like you missed the bus | |
Another one's comin' in about ten minutes | |
Man you don't gotta push yourself to the limit | |
[Chorus]: | |
Slow the flow, relax your mind | |
Gain control, take your time | |
Slow the flow, relax your mind, | |
Gain control, take your time | |
Forget about the weekdays, | |
Ready for the weekend | |
Bring your swimtrunks and jump into the deepend | |
Stop | |
For a minute or two | |
And take a look at the view | |
I guarantee you'll see something new | |
We only have two seasons; summer and spring | |
So rock your flip flops and your cutoff jeans | |
If you live in Long Beach then you know that I mean | |
California dreamin' where it's all routine | |
A situation comes that so soon is past | |
And you'll catch whiplash movin' so | |
Quick fast | |
(fast, fast, fast) | |
You're looking for satisfaction; mistaken again | |
King solomons said it like chasin the wind, | |
You need to slow down start takin' it in. | |
[Chorus] |
