Shake down!
There are times when all we want
(Shake down!)
is just not to think at all.
(Shake down!)
there are words we sing along,
(Shake down!)
there are words we forgot.

wary of my isms,
(just say [what] just say [what] you are)
lacking in conviction.
we should be doing something more
than just something to say.
just say what you are!
(so say what you are)
say what you are,

there are times when all we've got
(Shake down!)
is a distant sense of loss,
(Shake down!)
of the words that we forgot

wary of my isms,
(just say [what] just say [what] you are)
lacking in conviction.
we should be doing something more
than just something to say.
just say what you are!
(so say what you are)
say what you are,
and we'll sing the words that we forgot.

thats my condition to sing.
