High Knees Lyrics by Brian David Gilbert

Dances Moving

2017

[Intro]
Here's that new thing that you're choosing
Now for Dances Moving!
Episode 2: High Knees
Welcome friends, I'm BDG
And I'll teach you how to dance properly
Now that we've got the Step Touch down
It's time to get those puppies off the ground
Pop those legs, and swat those bees
That's how you're gonna do the High Knees
Are you ready? Here we go
3.. 2.. 1.. High Knees
(Get 'em up now)
(C'mon)
[Brian:] What's the opposite of low?
[All:] High!
[Brian:] And what do you call this part?
[All:] Knees!
[Brian:] Put 'em together, it's addition time
[Declan:] Knee Highs!
[Brian:] No, High Knees
[Verse 1]
Get 'em up high and then up even higher
It's not a lot to do
Show me your dreams, your sky high desire
You have to get your knees so
High like a plane, high like a mountain
High like a stoner, 420 (Don't do drugs)
High like a very tall building where the elevator
Ride makes you dizzy, don't get in a tizzy
Just knees up, knees up, knees up, don't stop
Sharks have to keep on swimming or they die
Knees up, knees up, knees up, don't stop
Up to your shoulders, up to your eye
[Verse 2]
Keep on goin', but look at this graph
Be a math and see the truth
The answer's so simple it'll make you laugh
The higher you can get your knees the
More you succeed, the more you are liked
More, more, more (Correlation is positive)
More self-esteem I can walk into a room and say
Hey look at me, yes you look at me
I'm great and smart and nice
And we should go on a date, I'll pick you up at eight
[Woman:] Okay
[Brian:} Sorry that was forward-
[Brian:] Wait- you?
[Brian:] Yeah?
[Girl:] Yeah
[Brian:] Cool, alright, sweet, yes
[Girl:] Okay
[Brian:] I'll see you then...
[Verse 3]
Oh...
Knees up, Knees up, Knees up, Knees up
She said 'yes' 'cause me knees are high
Also 'cause I got this twinkle in my eye
I'm so happy I could die
But the higher I can get my knees the
More I succeed, more I am liked
More, more, more (I can't believe you got a date)
My moves are good and I'm proud and I'm pretty
And I'm feeling really good in Baltimore City
And my mood is high just like my knittys
And you wanna know why, just do my ditty
It's High Knees, High Knees, High Knees, High Knees
High Knees, High Knees, High Knees, High Knees
High Knees, High Knees, High Knees, High Knees
High Knees!
[Outro]
Good work today, everybody
Make sure to come back next week for more...
Dances Moving!
