[Intro] [percussive muted electric guitar scratches] [vocal beatboxing and rhythmic scatting: jibbi-jibbi-tap-tap-jibbi-jibbi-tap-tap] [slap bass enters] [Verse 1] [rhythmic male vocals] Jumpin' to this, jumpin' to that, it's gotta be the right thing Gettin' to this, gettin' to that, you know what I mean On to the next thing and on to the cover of a, magazine Gotta get over, gotta get under, gotta get on the scene [Chorus] Maybe I should go when I don't know what to say [I don't know what to say] Instead I bump around looking for the trapdoor An amaze me, just for now I'm feeling easy to impress Play a little game, the one you know, make me forget myself [Instrumental Break] [syncopated guitar riff, driving drum beat] [Verse 2] Can you be this, or can you be that, you might be all alone Gotta get in, gotta get out, forget what you think you know You're missing the point, so pick up the joint and pass the fat around Take a good puff, it's never enough, but to amaze you must astound [Chorus] Maybe I should go when I don't know what to say [I don't know what to say] Instead I bump around looking for the trapdoor An amaze me, just for now I'm feeling easy to impress Play a little game, the one you know, make me forget myself [Bridge] [bass and drums continue, guitar plays rhythmic accents] I said I'm on the verge, on the verge I said I'm on the verge, on the verge, on the verge, on the verge, on the verge, on the verge When I'm on the verge I said I'm on the verge, on the verge When I'm on the verge, the verge, the verge, the verge, the verge [Verse 3] Sad kid, regret what you did, well it's driving you berserk Give it up, Jack, you can never go back and no matter how hard you work To avoid the abuse, you give an excuse and say it's all an uphill climb Sisyphus this, and Sisyphus that, you're running out of time [Chorus] Maybe I should go when I don't know what to say [I don't know what to say] Instead I bump around looking for the trapdoor An amaze me, just for now I'm feeling easy to impress Play a little game, the one you know, make me forget myself [Outro] [vocal scatting returns: jibbi-jibbi-tap-tap] [guitar scratches fade] [final drum hit]
