Downtime - Dr Syntax, Pete Cannon

I don’t know about you, but

I could use a little downtime, I’m

Sick of being stuck in one room, when

So much can happen outside

We’re all animals in our own way

And all animals need a little light and space

So what you need to try and do is break the chains

Instead of sitting in a cage, wishing life away, now

I don’t know about you, but

I could use a little downtime, I’m

Sick of being stuck in one room, when

So much can happen outside

We’re all animals in our own way

And all animals need a little light and space

So what you need to try and do is break the chains

Instead of sitting in a cage, wishing life away, now

It’s Friday night

And you were down for some fun

And while the time is right

Your whole week has been a catalog of minor gripes

And niggling little things that make you die inside

But you don’t need any problems on your mind tonight

Don’t watch them, take them out your line of sight

Don’t be giving in to that’ll dry your eyes

Time for you to hit the street like it’s final fight

So socialise, you’re getting into the vibe

You’re getting into the vibe

And on it like the type of guy that doesn’t need telling twice

All of life doesn’t need to be so damn dry

If you’re with me on that please hold your hands high

Some folk use any excuse to let loose

Others stay hold up like chickens in coops

Now, I would say the thing that you need to do

Is find a happy medium somewhere in between the two, and

Get involved

I don’t know about you, but

I could use a little downtime, I’m

Sick of being stuck in one room, when

So much can happen outside

We’re all animals in our own way

And all animals need a little light and space

So what you need to try and do is break the chains

Instead of sitting in a cage, wishing life away, now

What’s up now?

You’re looking kinda tightly wound

What you need to do is quickly turn your life around

There’s a thin line between smiles and frowns

But you can hit the big time, here’s a guide to how

Gather round, gather round, we supply the sound

Gonna entice a crowd to get entirely

Getting hot up in here, someone wipe me down

I’m feeling like I might have lost about 19 pounds

Or there abouts, in your whereabouts

Getting funky in the club, we need to air it out

I’m not saying f*** everything you care about

But every now and then, ease off on the pressure valve

I know life can be full of heartbreak and sorrow

But we’ll deal with that later, lets say tomorrow

'till then just remember how to act like children

And let me see you exhibit a lack of discipline

I don’t know about you, but

I could use a little downtime, I’m

Sick of being stuck in one room, when

So much can happen outside

We’re all animals in our own way

And all animals need a little light and space

So what you need to try and do is break the chains

Instead of sitting in a cage, wishing life away, now

I don’t know about you, but

I could use a little downtime, I’m

Sick of being stuck in one room, when

So much can happen outside

We’re all animals in our own way

And all animals need a little light and space

So what you need to try and do is break the chains

Instead of sitting in a cage, wishing life away, now
