Get It On
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When they let me out
Said they'd give me back my brain
They said you'll be alright
But you'll never be quite the same
The human mind is sophisticated
I think the treatment was
Completely over-rated
I'm mad but I'd do it all again
You're runnin' round
You don't know what to do
Better leave your monkey
Sittin' at the zoo
Your dad don't like it
But your mama do
I've got something that is good for you
Why don't we get it on
Get it on and rock, yeah
Get it on, yeah
Get it on tonight and rock
Gotta mean machine, take the keys
And punch it up
Get it on, sit on it
I'm looking for a loving cup
Six foot three or five foot two
Been so long, anything will do
Well, I'm hot
Let's don't waste a single drop
You're runnin' round
You don't know what to do
Better leave your monkey
Sittin' at the zoo
Your dad don't like it
But your mama do
I've got something that is good for you
Why don't we get it on
Get it on and rock, yeah, yeah, yeah
Get it on, get it on tonight and rock
(I don't know if I can take it)
It's just a case of eccentricity
Doesn't look that serious to me
(All these doctors and pretty nurses)
It's such a shame
His mama used to be so proud
Then turned his stereo up far too loud
There's a red light in my mirror
I know it's almost over
Those little men in white coats
Are gonna take me back somehow
But I've enjoyed this little bit of freedom
Don't kill the maniacs
One day you'll need 'em
I'm mad, but I'd do it all again, yeah, yeah, yeah
They're gonna take me back again
You're runnin' round
You don't know what to do
Better leave your monkey
Sittin' at the zoo
Your dad don't like it
But your mama do
I've got something that is good for you
Why don't we get it on
Get it on and rock, yeah, yeah, yeah
Get it on, get it on tonight and rock
Yeah, yeah, baby
Get it on, get it on and rock, yeah
Get it on, get it on tonight and rock, yeah, yeah, yeah
Get it on, get it on and rock, I think we got it
Get it on, get it on tonight and rock
