Slow Motion (Davis/Destri) - 3:27
What's all that commotion going on?
The boy in the back on his second attack wants his baby back [Wants his baby back]
What's all that commotion that you hear?
The girl in the back who was doing the quake got a belly ache [She can't concentrate]
Pick up the beat, you can move like you're made out of vapour
"Catch me if you can," is what she said with her hands
"Come on and take me back." [Come on and take me back]
When she gives you the beat and you get the shine
The world slows down and she stops on a dime
Got a number when you close your eyes like a real magician
Still you know she'll never slip away
Keep time in your head
Counting in your head
Slow motion
I can play with time
I can keep today but tomorrow's fine
Stop and look at the pictures rolling in your head
Slow motion
You can play with time
You can leave her today but tomorrow's fine
Stop and live in your dreams at night, rolling in your bed
Still you know she'll never slip away
Keep time in your head
Counting in your head
Slow motion
You can stop on a dime
Slow motion
You ought to try it some time
Take me back on another track
Take me back, take me back
Slow motion
You can pick up the beat
Slow motion
You can stop on the street
Take me back on another track
Take me back, take me back
Slow motion
You can stop on a dime
Slow motion
You ought to try it some time
Take me back on another track
Take me back, take me back
Slow motion
You can pick up the beat
Slow motion
You can stop on the street
Take me back on another track
Take me back, take me back
