The Shuffle

King Porter Stomp
앨범 : Shuffle

One step forward two back
Keeps us all being lapped
Always looking over shoulders
Gotta watch your own back
That’s the way nowadays
Each man for himself
Lost faith along the way
Now he knows nothing else
Works days sleeps nights
What’s right who’s wrong?
Man takes what he can
Honest as the day is long
Won’t be long
They got them doing the shuffle
All on the grind
You know the modern day hustle
Too many things to juggle
Too many things get dropped
Some sneak round the back
Others picking the lock
Stop look at what you got
It ain’t nearly enough
From the earth breathe the air
Then we are back in the dust
Nobody’s left to trust
Too many lines have been crossed
Keep following trends
Stay paying the cost
Take a loss
Bounce back
Start over again
We are just doing the shuffle
Till we get to the end
Until then stand straight, walk tall, pay attention
From classrooms to class caste
Got us fearing detention
One eye clocks the tension
While the neighbourhood watch
In between flicking channels
Are still checking the locks
Everyday we’re just doing the shuffle
We’re making time, taking time and avoiding the hustle
Round and round one step forward to back
Watch them running the race but always getting lapped
Staying stuck in a box
With a self-sealed top
Some stay building windows
Opportunity knocks
Some keep throwing rocks
Some step to the side
It’s just part of the struggle
They’ve got us breaking their stride
Once bitten, twice shy
We’ve all got the marks to prove it
One step forward two back
It’s the sound of the movement
Try hard to catch up
Keep making improvement
Switch off, zone out
Lose ourselves in the music
Days on the treadmill
Never make our way round
No matter what steps we take
We need to cover more ground
Some lost, some found
Some run, some walk
Some don’t say a word
Others nothing but talk
Some caught single file
No space to change lanes
Some pull to the curb
Others doing the same
Best foot forward
Now it’s all ball and chain
Heavy weight, broad shoulders
It’s what we do to maintain
So there they go again
No time to stop
Direct route no detour
Always joining the dots
Always checking the watch
Before the day is complete
They get used to the tune
But then they change up the beat
Everyday we’re just doing the shuffle
We’re making time, taking time and avoiding the hustle
Round and round one step forward to back
Running the race but always getting lapped
