Walk The Walk Lyrics - Haunted - Poe

My 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 you, 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 livin' 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 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 but 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 

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums 

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums 

Walk to the beat of my own drums 

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums, hey 

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, hey, get back 

Watched his dream walk across a silver screen 

And he was standing there 

When the theater 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 every, hey every, hey everybody 

Can you walk the walk? 

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums 

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums 

Walk to the beat of my own drums 

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums, hey 

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 my street 

Make love to my baby 

Make love to my baby 

It's a wonderful idea, but it doesn't work 

My own drum, my own beat 

MY own drum, my own, own, own, own 

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 all, back it all, back it all, back it all up 

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum 

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum 

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum 

There's someone knocking in the wall 

Was it like an echo?
