Got a little rhythm, a rhythm, a rhythm |
|
That pitter-pats through my brain... |
|
So darn persistent, the day isn't distant |
|
When it'll drive me insane |
|
Comes in the morning without any warning |
|
And hangs around me all day |
|
I'll have to sneak up to it, someday and speak up to it |
|
I hope it listens when I say: |
|
Fascinating rhythm, you've got me on the go |
|
Fascinating rhythm, I'm all a-quiver |
|
What a mess you're making, the neighbors want to know |
|
Why I'm always shaking, just like a fliver. |
|
Each morning I get up with the sun |
|
Start a-hopping, never stopping |
|
To find at night no work has been done |
|
I know that once it didn't matter, but now you're doing wrong |
|
When you start to patter, I'm so unhappy |
|
Won't you take a day off, decide to run along |
|
Somewhere far away off, and make it snappy |
|
Oh, how I long to be the gal I used to be |
|
Fascinating rhythm, oh won't you stop picking on me? |
