I was bored in an after school program and asked the kid next to me to give me a word, any word, to start my song. He said “random.” Gee, thanks, dude. Here’s to a random seventh track.
Just a random kid on your way downtown
You’ve got a steel hard look and a sort of frown
You know you’ve got it all cut out for yourself
But when it comes to show time you blank out
Hey, you, listen to your heart now
Got to throw it big time
‘Cause you’ve only got one shot
It’s your last chance
To get everything right
So tell me, are you ready or not
I said, hey, you got to play it loud now
Have to hit the bull’s eye
Got to give it all you’ve got
I said, hey, you, listen to your heart now
Better throw it big time
So are you ready or not
Singing in the rain on your way back home
You’ve got a short term chord, you know it’s all your own
Stopping to rest near a knife sharp stone
And as you still sing a crowd starts to from
Hey, you, listen to your heart now
Got to throw it big time
‘Cause you’ve only got one shot
It’s your last chance
To make everything right
So tell me, are you ready or not
I said, hey, you got to play it loud now
Have to hit the bull’s eye
Got to give it all you’ve got
I said, hey, you, listen to your heart now
Better throw it big time
So are you ready or not
You’re the masterpiece of the century
Deep inside you there’s a lot
I know everything that you can be
If you want to be great, here’s your chance
Hey, you, listen to your heart now
Got to throw it big time
‘Cause you’ve only got one shot
It’s your last chance
To get everything right
So tell me, are you ready or not
I said, hey, you got to play it loud now
‘Cause the time is perfect
So give it all you’ve got
I said, hey, you, listen to your heart now
Better throw it big time
So are you ready or not
Are you ready or not
