Person L Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Have you got the crowd to back it up?
I'm a firm believer in a forward movement,
got to get the fuck up off the couch, so turn it off
turn it down, tune it out, tear it up.yea.Come be part of the show
We've been having problems now with no solutions
and I've only stayed out of the way
theres got to be a simpler solution
so turn it off, turn it down, tune it out, tear it up.oh yea, come be part of the show
you little dream, you little inspiration
we could all use someone who knows a role in patience
we will be! say it louder.We will be! come part of the show.
Now I think were heading for a situation
thats completely out of our control
Don't let them throw you in an institution
Herd off the sheep before they throw you to the wolves
to the wolves! Watch your step, watch your mouth.become part of the show
you little dream, you little inspiration
we could all use someone who knows a role in patience
We will be! say it louder.We will be! come part of the show.
