Shakedown! Lyrics - The Start

Hey, two headed monster on the big blue screen 

They tell you how to spend your dime 

Now all the minutes change to hours then the days fly by 

And nothing occupies your mind 

Beautiful people tell you what to wear 

And who to be and what to buy 

It's time to leave it all behind and 

Rise up, dance to a different beat 

Rise up, shakedown 

Rise up, free your mind of what they say 

Rise up, shakedown 

Rise up, dance to a different beat 

Rise up, free your mind of what they say 

Rise up, dance to a different beat 

Rise up, shakedown 

Without a doubt they've thought of everything 

Of every way to steal your time 

Now all the days have changed to weeks 

And still the years fly by, never thought to question why 

Pretty people 

All those people talking at you 

Talking what, when, why 

Come on and leave it all behind and 

Rise up, dance to a different beat 

Rise up, shakedown 

Rise up, free your mind of what they say 

Rise up, shakedown 

Rise up, dance to a different beat 

Rise up, free your mind of what they say 

Rise up, dance to a different beat 

Rise up, shakedown 

Yeah, you're all dressed up 

And you got nothing to lose 

And I see you've brought 

Your dancing shoes 

Well, let's figure out 

How to use those things 

Yeah, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon 

Dance with me, dance, I said 

Rise up, dance to a different beat 

Rise up, shakedown 

Rise up, free your mind of what they say 

Rise up, shakedown 

Rise up, dance to a different beat 

Rise up, free your mind of what they say 

Rise up, dance to a different beat 

Rise up, shakedown 

Rise up, shakedown 

Rise up, shakedown 

Rise up
