Thompson Twins - Shake It Down lyrics
[Thompson Twins - Shake It Down lyrics]
The man from Japan says it's
All a karma thrill before you can fly
You've gotta feel the chill
So if you dance all the way
From the cradle to the grave
Well, you have to do it all
Again until your soul is saved
Where do I go from here?
There's gotta be a hole in the sky somewhere
I don't wanna come back 'round
I'm tired of being earthbound
Shake it down
You gotta make time to shake it
Shake it down
If at no time you're gonna make it
Shake it down if you can't make it, fake it
Shake it down all right
Shake it down
Philosophy will grow on trees
If you just leave it alone
And love will often multiply
'Cos you make more than you know
Where do I go from here?
There's gotta be a hole in the sky somewhere
I don't wanna come back 'round
I'm tired of being earthbound
Shake it down
You gotta make time to shake it
Shake it down
If at no time you're gonna make it
Shake it down if you can't make it, fake it
Shake it down all right
Shake it down
Hey, a soul can't be bought
Nor can a soul be sold
'Cos it is just what it is
Like a rose is just a rose
And if you dance all the way
From the cradle to the grave
Well, you'll have to do it all
Again until your soul is saved
Where do I go from here?
There's gotta be a hole in the sky somewhere
I don't wanna come back 'round
I'm tired of being earthbound
Shake it down
You gotta make time to shake it
Shake it down
If at no time you're gonna make it
Shake it down if you can't make it, fake it
Shake it down all right
Shake it down
You gotta make time to shake it
Shake it down
If at no time you're gonna make it
Shake it down if you can't make it, fake it
Shake it down all right
Shake it down shake it down
Shake it down shake it down
All a karma thrill before you can fly
You've gotta feel the chill
So if you dance all the way
From the cradle to the grave
Well, you have to do it all
Again until your soul is saved
Where do I go from here?
There's gotta be a hole in the sky somewhere
I don't wanna come back 'round
I'm tired of being earthbound
Shake it down
You gotta make time to shake it
Shake it down
If at no time you're gonna make it
Shake it down if you can't make it, fake it
Shake it down all right
Shake it down
Philosophy will grow on trees
If you just leave it alone
And love will often multiply
'Cos you make more than you know
Where do I go from here?
There's gotta be a hole in the sky somewhere
I don't wanna come back 'round
I'm tired of being earthbound
Shake it down
You gotta make time to shake it
Shake it down
If at no time you're gonna make it
Shake it down if you can't make it, fake it
Shake it down all right
Shake it down
Hey, a soul can't be bought
Nor can a soul be sold
'Cos it is just what it is
Like a rose is just a rose
And if you dance all the way
From the cradle to the grave
Well, you'll have to do it all
Again until your soul is saved
Where do I go from here?
There's gotta be a hole in the sky somewhere
I don't wanna come back 'round
I'm tired of being earthbound
Shake it down
You gotta make time to shake it
Shake it down
If at no time you're gonna make it
Shake it down if you can't make it, fake it
Shake it down all right
Shake it down
You gotta make time to shake it
Shake it down
If at no time you're gonna make it
Shake it down if you can't make it, fake it
Shake it down all right
Shake it down shake it down
Shake it down shake it down
