Shake Songtext
von Count Zero

Come on, shake
Shake
Shake
Shake
Shake

I thought I had you pegged
On the braver men who love the money
You found one delight
His heart, he′d bite, you pulled the reel away
He'd buy a round of drinks
All your friends would blink in envy
Instead you headed straight for me
Dragged me gratefully to the floor and said

"Let′s see you"
Shake
Shake
Shake
Shake

Look, I'd believe this


If you came here more on your own accord

Not just to win a bet
But with yourself or me
Not just to seize the tension
But be adored
See, at nineteen to be a wiser boy
Out here, beneath the radar's range
Are many sisters who with hearts destroyed
May all well look like drunk John Wayne
Since no consolation she convinced me
I′ve no idea what it′s gonna take

To change this mindset I've had ever since

You can′t seem to shake

Come on, shake
Shake
Shake
Shake
Shake


And you replied, "Now let's move the invisible souls
Across the fields with the goat of God
And swim all startled in unsound lakes"
And I said, "Right, how long you think the ride there′s gonna take?"

Come on, shake
Shake up
Shake down
Shake up
Shake down
