Fascinating rhythm
You got me on the go
Fascinating rhythm, I'm all a-quiver
What a mess you're making
The neighbours want to know
Why I'm always shaking just like a flivver
Each morning I get up with the sun
Start a-hopping, never stopping
To find at night no work has been done
I know that once it didn't matter
But now you're doing wrong
When you start to patter I'm so unhappy
Won't you take a day off?
Decide to run along somewhere far away off
And make it snappy
Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be!
Fascinating rhythm
Oh won't you stop picking on me?
I know that once it didn't matter
But now you're doing wrong
When you start to patter I'm so unhappy
Won't you take a day off?
Decide to run along somewhere far away off
And make it snappy
Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be!
Fascinating rhythm, fascinating rhythm, fascinating rhythm
Stop picking on me?
