Look Alive Lyrics by Yabadum

Careful Kid

2014

[Verse 1]
Some kind of machine was making nothing
But I heard engines and factory chirps all around
Plastic faces and shy embraces and decorations
They can’t fool me
I won’t settle in
‘Cause I’ve been very careful
To stay out the way
[Chorus]
Oh, just look alive
You’ve got yourself surrounded
Watch who sticks around, you’ve got to ask them "What are you waiting for?"
You can work it out
You can push it around
You try to rearrange the pieces to fit in
You can work it out
You can push it around
You try to rearrange the pieces to fit in, fit in, fit in
[Verse 2]
Word of mouth goes great long places
And you should know that secrets don’t belong to anybody
I take pleasure in seeming clever
But, you’re no better
We’re getting older
Something’s getting colder
And I’m shrugging shoulders
‘Cause no one here’s to blame
[Chorus]
Oh, just look alive
You’ve got yourself surrounded
Watch who sticks around, you’ve got to ask them "What are you waiting for?"
You can work it out
You can push it around
You try to rearrange the pieces to fit in
You can work it out
You can push it around
You try to rearrange the pieces to fit in
[Outro]
Hey!
Oh, don’t you feel that way
In your bones
I’m just trying to get myself along
