[Verse 1]

I know a couple jokes

But none as funny as the truth

I know some good folks

And some of them look just like you

I wear the right shoes

So I can outrun everyone

I got the right moves

Like an earthworm in the sun


[Chorus]

I gotta get sharp, get sharp

Cut in line right to the best part, best part

Pumping love into a dead heart, dead heart

Oh, my God

That's the feeling when the fingers go numb

That's the feeling when the feeling is gone


[Verse 2]

I'm gonna quit drugs

Stop drinking

Start reading books

I'll do a lot of thinking

I'll raise a couple kids

And teach them how to live

The way my mommy taught me

Before I hit the skids

I'll get my hair cut

Buy a cheap suit

I'll chase a pay stub

Guess it's what I gotta do

Go try and get hired

At a nine-to-five

Behind a desk in a high-rise

Filing cabinet in the sky


[Pre-Chorus]

Don't wait too long, dream's almost done

You blink and it's time to wake up

Don't wait too long, dream's almost done

You blink and it's time to wake up

Time to wake up

Time to wake up


[Chorus]

I gotta get sharp, get sharp

Cut in line right to the best part, best part

Pumping love into a dead heart, dead heart

Oh, my God

That's the feeling when the fingers go numb


[Bridge]

Maybe it's my slacker lack of motivation or whatever

Whatever

I never had a daddy tell me get my shit together

Whatever

I gotta get sharp, I gotta get sharp


[Chorus]

I gotta get sharp, get sharp

Cut in line right to the best part, best part

Pumping love into a dead heart, dead heart

Oh, my God

Oh, my God


[Outro]

Get sharp

Cut in line right to the best part

Pumping love into a dead heart

Oh, my God

That's the feeling when the feeling is gone
