ฟังเพลงThe World Ain't Slowin' Down

I found you sitting on a suitcase crying

Beneath my feet I feel the rumble of a subway train

And I laugh out loud

Cause it's the one thing I hadn't been trying

The train came in breathless

The passenger's restless

You say, "Baby, you'll never change"

You gotta get gone

You gotta get going

Hey, the world ain't slowin' down

For no one

It's a carnival calling out to you

And it sounds like a song

It hits you like scripture

You paint the picture

With colors squeezed from your hand

Weren't you the kid

Who just climbed on a merry-go-round

Hey, look, the world ain't slowin' down

Hey~

The world ain't slowin' down

Hey~

Out on the sidewalk

The pigeons do the moonwalk

I'll be dancing like Fred Astaire

The lampposts are rockin'

The whole town is talking

Like a fool in a barber's chair

And I get the sensation

It's joy and frustration

Like getting caught by a drop of cold rain

Freedom can numb you

When there's no place to run to

It feels just like Novocain

You gotta get gone

You gotta get going

Hey, the world ain't slowin' down

For no one

It's a carnival calling out to you

And it sounds like a song

It hits you like scripture

You paint the picture

With colors squeezed from your hand

Weren't you the kid

Who just climbed on a merry-go-round

Hey, look, the world ain't slowin' down

Hey~

The world ain't slowin' down

Hey~

You packed up all your handbags

You're throwing off the sandbags

I let go when you stepped free

I didn't want to lose you

You said, "You didn't choose

It's just how your karma came"

But thanks for the vision,

And the twenty-twenty wisdom

It hit me like a south-bound train

You gotta get gone

You gotta get going

Hey, the world ain't slowin' down

For no one

It's a carnival calling out to you

And it sounds like a song

It hits you like scripture

You paint the picture

With colors squeezed from your hand

Weren't you the kid

Who just climbed on a merry-go

Weren't you the kid

Who just climbed on a merry-go

Weren't you the kid

Who just climbed on a merry-go-round

Hey, look, the world ain't slowin' down

Hey~

The world ain't slowin' down

Hey~

It's a big blue world

It's a big blue world

Ridin' on a big, blue world
