Took A Trip On A Bus That I Didn't Know

Met A Girl Selling Drinks At The Disco

The Truth Comes Back When You Let It Go

Seems Complicated 'cause It's Really So Simple

Walking Down Yonge Street On A Friday

Can't Follow Them, Gotta Do It My Way

No Fast Lanes, Still On The Highway

Moving In And Out, No Doubt There's A Brighter Day



Chorus:

No Time To Get Down 'cause I'm Moving Up

No Time To Get Down 'cause I'm Moving Up

No Time To Get Down 'cause I'm Moving Up, Ah-ah

Check Out The Crabs In The Bucket

(repeat)



It's Like Flies On The Windscreen Writing On Walls

Square These Clones Claim They're Having A Ball

Blaming Themselves Just Before Last Call

Tic-a-tic-a-toc, Tic-a-tic-a-toc

Clock Strikes Twelve, Clock Strikes One

Smoking Gun Put These Fools On The Run

I Know It's Not That Simple, I Know It's Not That Hard

Where To Go



Chorus



Rap:

You Know What I Mean? Yeah, I Heard Ya, Man.

Yo Check It Out:

It's A Conniption Fit In The Microphone Lit

I Take It Higher Like A Bird On A Wire,

Retire The Fire, I Never, 'cause I'm Just Movin' On Up,

Choosin' To Touch The Unseen, Cravin' To Clutch

The Most Inevitable Legible Pyromania,

Slayin' The Devil And Sending Him Back To Transylvania.

Strangely Enough I Uphold That Side Of The Ghetto

From My Heavy Metal, Will Settle The Puppets Like Gepetto

Damn, If Mirrors Were Created By Sand,

Then I'm Looking In The Water For Reflections Of Man.

Understand The Minds Above Time When It's Empty

MC, Tragically Hip "Ahead By A Century"



Chorus
