"Walk the Walk"

Poe

 

 

Mother spent ten years sitting by a window
Scared if she spoke she would die of a heart attack
She listened as her dreams silently screamed
They drowned like little dolphins caught in a fishnet
Dear world I'm pleased to meet you

Hey everybody when you walk the walk
You gotta back it all up, can you talk the talk
Hey everybody when I hear the knock
Don't wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock

Hey everybody when my daddy died
He had a sad, sad story living in his eyes
Hey everybody when you walk the walk
You cannot measure out your life to the tick of a clock

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
Walk to the beat of my own drum
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum

Hey everybody when you walk the walk

You gotta back it all up, can you talk the talk
Hey everybody when I hear the knock
Don't wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock
Hey every hey everybody

Can you walk the walk?
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
(Say what?)
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
(Say what?)
Walk to the beat of my own drum
(Say what?)
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
(Say what?)
Walk to the beat of my own drum
I wanna live to the beat of my own drum
I wanna laugh to the beat of my own drum
I wanna hang ten, high, say pleased to meet you
Take to the beat of my own drum
I wanna give to the beat of my own drum
Fly, cry, win, lose, live, die, take five
Pleased to meet you
My daddy spent ten years living on the outside looking in
He thought that he would never get back
Watched his dream walk across a silver screen
And he was standing there when the theatre went pitch black
Dear world I'm pleased to meet you

Hey everybody when I walk the walk
I gotta back it all up, can I talk the talk
Hey everybody when I hear the knock
Don't wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock
Hey every hey everybody

Can you walk the walk?
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
(Say what?)
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
(Say what?)
Walk to the beat of my own drum
(Say what?)
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
(Say what?)

Play to the beat of my own drum
I wanna sing to the beat of my own drum
I wanna play to the beat of my own drum
I wanna hang ten, high, say pleased to meet you
Screw up to the beat of my own drum
I wanna take it out of town and do it to my drum

Scream shout hide out

Win lose wipe out

Saunter down the street
Make love to my baby
Make love to my baby
It's a wonderful idea... but it doesn't work.
Hey did you ever get the feeling that it's really a joke
You think you've got it figured out and then you find that you don't
So you say goodbye to the world and now you're floating in space
You got no sense of nothing not even a time or a place
Then suddenly you hear it it's the beat of your heart
And for the first time in your life you know your life is about to start
Oh yeah bring it on
Hey everybody, hey everybody
Hey everybody when you walk the walk you gotta back it up..

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
