Lighten Up (this is serious)Come on heart Lighten up Loose some weight Take a vacation on the train You can pump blood in moderation Just give us a break Give us a rest Give us a chance to catch our breath Why do you always have to function like an organ? Maybe you should change your line of work And be a transplant donor We'll set you up inside a vacant ribcage Look at all the space We took out the veins Pulled back the skin Let it the sun-rays To brighten up you're senstive condition Well, thanks, but uh-uh no thanks. . . . So come on be direct And stop piling all those layers 'Cuz you're losing their attention Be more shallow and less convicted when you sing Without substance Put out more image 'Cuz we'll only like your music if it's fed to us Intravenously |
