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.
The people don’t care
That come to see you
About whatever problem you have before you walked on stage
They pay to see you, and they’re looking for your best
So whatever’s going on with you that’s not pertaining to your act?
You leave it in the dressing room
Time
What you gonna do
With your time
'Cause it's calling you
Abomination (so far)
You never have time for anyone
Are you living it up
Or packing it in?
Hear everyone say
I think it's time
We shake it up (we shake it up)
We shake it up (we shake it up)
We shake it up (we shake it up)
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
We've been here for centuries
Now it's time we shake it up
What we came, we came to do
Yeah, we came to shake it up
When we came, we came for real
Yeah, we came to shake it up
I wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna, I wanna shake it up
Down
It's your thing
Get your face first falls
When I call you to the middle of the ring
You know, abomination (so far)
You never have time for anyone
Are you living it up
Or packing it in?
Hear everyone say
I think it's time
We shake it up (we shake it up)
We shake it up (we shake it up)
We shake it up (we shake it up)
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
We've been here for centuries
Now it's time we shake it up
What we came, we came to do
Yeah, we came to shake it up
When we came, we came for real
Yeah, we came to shake it up
I wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna, I wanna shake it up
We've been here for centuries
Now it's time we shake it up
What we came, we came to do
Yeah, we came to shake it up (shake it up)
When we came, we came for real
Yeah, we came to shake it up
I wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna, I wanna shake it up
(I wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna, I wanna shake it up)
