Fascinating Rhythm.flac Songtext
von Lucy Dixon

Got a little rhythm, a rhythm, a rhythm
That pitter-pats through my brain
So darn persistent
The day isn′t distant
When it'll drive me insane
Comes in the morning
Without any warning
And hangs around me all day
Someday I′ll sneak up to it
I'll have to speak up to it
I hope it listens when I say
Fascinating rhythm, you got me on the go
Fascinating rhythm, I'm all a-quiver
What a mess you′re making
The neighbors want to know
Why I′m always shaking
Just like a flivver
Each morning I get up with the sun
I start a-hopping, never stopping
To find at night no work has been done


I know that once it didn't matter
But now you′re doing wrong
When you start to patter
I'm so unhappy
Won′t you take a day off
Decide to run along
Somewhere far away off
And make it snappy
Oh, how I long to be the girl I used to be
Fascinating rhythm, won't you stop picking on me
Fascinating rhythm, you got me on the go
Fascinating rhythm, I′m all a-quiver
What a mess you're making
The neighbors want to know
Why I'm always shaking
Just like a flivver
Each morning I get up with the sun
I start a-hopping, never stopping
To find at night no work has been done
I know that once it didn′t matter
But now you′re doing wrong
When you start to patter
I'm so unhappy
Won′t you take a day off
Decide to run along
Somewhere far away off
And make it snappy
Oh, how I long to be the girl I used to be
Fascinating rhythm, won't you stop picking on
Won′t you stop picking on me
