Shut It Down
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.
Sometimes you misunderstood
The way I see it, don´t do no good
Sometimes you can´t raise no help
Wind up ahead of yourself
I swear I get so tired of aggravation
Believe me baby it´s nowhere, nowhere
The same old thing
The same old thing
I just wanna
Shut it down
Shut it down
On your feet or on your knees
You´re only shooting the breeze
Words are cheap and talk is free
Turns out to be a rabbit with me
I´m gonna ace you out
No more confusion
Begin to make me nervous, nervous
The same old thing
The same old thing
I just wanna
Shut it down
Shut it down
I don´t think you understand
Ain´t no-one holding your hand
You´re only skin and bone
You´re born broke and you die alone
Free rides are over now
No more Mr. Nice Guy
Believe me baby it´s over, over
The same old thing
The same old thing
I just wanna
Shut it down
Shut it down
