Fusion
from The Woman Upstairs
Better wake up early in the morning, girl.
Better try not to think too hard,
Because the river is a bending around your bed in your…
In your dreams and in your head.
Better…
Better not run down there.
Better not run down there.
Better wake up early in the morning, girl.
You better lock your window and seal that door.
Honey, ignore the rhythm that you woke up with.
Better block your ears.
You’d better close your eyes.
You gotta take just a shallow breath.
No,
No,
No,
No,
No…
No, it’s time to back off slow now.
No, it’s time you shut that door.
You know you’re hearing feelings grow now.
More,
And more,
And more,
And more —
A fusion of rhythm,
A fusion of sound.
You’re caught in the pace and the chase of the run down.
Down where and I swear it’s a fashion,
Stashin’ his beat in your pocket.
Hold on if you can lock it in,
And tear it up, tear it up.
Plant your feet,
And, baby, keep it neat,
‘Cause you don’t want this,
Taunt this.
Just a break from the monot’nous cake —
Walk away think it will never stay.
But if you could,
You would you’d carpe the day.
You’d play the denouement like a debutante.
No.
Stay aloof.
You’ll never reach the roof to run.
Run.
It’s time to back off slow now.
Run.
It’s time to shut that door.
Girl, run you’re hearing feelings grow now more,
And more,
And more,
And more —
A fusion of rhythm,
A fusion of sound.
You’re caught in the pace and the chase of the run down.
So you’ve straight up gotta end this now.
Better find a way to keep the city out.
Better close your blinds,
Make the noises stop.
Best remind your heart to keep the toaster off.
The chances don’t come often,
And the river’s off and running.
Better wake up early in the morning, girl.
Better try not to think too hard,
Because the river is a bending around your bed in your…
In your dreams and in your head.
Run.
It’s time to back off slow now.
Run.
It’s time to shut that door.
Girl, run you’re hearing feelings grow now.
More,
And more,
And more,
And more —
A fusion of rhythm,
A fusion of sound.
You’re caught in the pace and the chase of the run down.
So you straight up gotta end this now…
So you straight up gotta end this now.
The river’s off and running down!
