Can't Stand Still
Try and set your mind to find me
You'll find, baby, and I dart behind some cloth
A rattlesnake hisses behind me
I jump up blindly and run along down the road
I'm just sayin' I can't stand still
When the drums are marching by
And the sun's so bright
You know I can't stand still
When she twirls so wild
Look in her sparkling eye
They came undercover to spy me
But I took my mirror and reflected back their scope
I invented a new way to fly me
To a New England town with charm beyond my hopes
I'm just sayin' I can't stand still
With the find to swing me high
Release and wind, release and wind
No, I can't stand still
When she's closing in behind
And I hold the sky
Yeah, stones
Get thrown when darkness comes in
When I go home
It's faster than your throw
I'm just sayin' I can't stand still
When the wind dried my eye
In pantomime stripe
You know I can't stand still
I could grounded yellow kite
When the sun's so bright
The sun's so bright
The sun's so bright
The sun's so bright
The sun's so bright
The sun's so bright
You'll find, baby, and I dart behind some cloth
A rattlesnake hisses behind me
I jump up blindly and run along down the road
I'm just sayin' I can't stand still
When the drums are marching by
And the sun's so bright
You know I can't stand still
When she twirls so wild
Look in her sparkling eye
They came undercover to spy me
But I took my mirror and reflected back their scope
I invented a new way to fly me
To a New England town with charm beyond my hopes
I'm just sayin' I can't stand still
With the find to swing me high
Release and wind, release and wind
No, I can't stand still
When she's closing in behind
And I hold the sky
Yeah, stones
Get thrown when darkness comes in
When I go home
It's faster than your throw
I'm just sayin' I can't stand still
When the wind dried my eye
In pantomime stripe
You know I can't stand still
I could grounded yellow kite
When the sun's so bright
The sun's so bright
The sun's so bright
The sun's so bright
The sun's so bright
The sun's so bright
