Lyrics:
Here's a new idea, I've got news for you:
There's no free rides tonight
If you're strapped for cash, I've got a job for you:
My boots need shining son
Sit down, shut up
Oh, where do we begin?
The streets are full of anything you want
The city lies inviting you right in
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid
You can put your hands up
I love (love) girls with Brooklyn haircuts
I'll be your fanclub
Step, step - you're too slow
Speed it up, Speed it up
Speed it up, Speed it up
Speed it up
Here's your new position:
There's no need for you to wait in line tonight (at)
Misshapes. What's up? Where's your dancing shoes?
The kiddies get it on
Sit down, shut up
Oh, where do we begin?
The streets are full of anything you want
The city lies inviting you right in
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid
You can put your hands up
I love (love) girls with Brooklyn haircuts
I'll be your fanclub
Step, step - you're too slow
Speed it up, Speed it up
Speed it up, Speed it up
Speed it up!
All you wanted, I got
Never give it up
Finish what you started
Step, step - you're too slow
Speed it up
You can put your hands up
I love (love) girls with Brooklyn haircuts
I'll be your fanclub
Step, step - you're too slow
Speed it up, Speed it up
Speed it up, Speed it up
Speed it up.
