If I pick it up, can I put it downWhatever it is I just can't stopFor only 20 seconds at a time it's all mineI got too much pressureGot me under it's thumbAnd it's no fun, you can loseNow I got a choice but I can't chooseInsistent as you areIs no guarantee that you'll go farRock steady, if you canBut I've never been a steady manPeople, wanna shoot you downIf you can't swim then you will drownIn sorrowCan't get no medical attention till tomorrowSadlands are where I liveBut that's none of your businessYou keep asking, and soon enoughThe kids gonna have to get roughMaybe I'm a speed kingPush with the foot and I'm smilingI can glide on the love insideAnd there was you thinking that my hands were tiedAll along I saw you hopingI would slip and I'm not jokingThe evidence in these eventsIs still your lack of common senseDid you really think that I would sinkBecause I like another drinkHave to get up to get downThe remedy is in the soundAbsurdity of your suggestionLeaves me asking just one questionIf you are my friend today ?Why do you want to hear me say ?If I pick it up, can I put it downWhatever it is, I just can't stop(Repeat)
