Crank it Out

Crank It Out

(Crank it out. Crank it out.)

Gotta get a tune down in my head.
Wrote a few notes before it fled.
Gotta good beginning, don’t have an end –
not the kinda time that I wanna spend.
When nothin’s right, then it must be all wrong,
just need a song I can sing along.

(refrain)
(Crank it out.)
Gotta be a Twist n Shout –
(Crank it out.)
Break it, shake it, make it loud!
(Crank it out.)
As long as it pleases the crowd –
(Crank it out.)

Make up a melody, create a chord,
Gotta find the sound that I wanna record.
Put a song together, yeah that’s the plan,
a little harmony for the brothers in the band.
Blend the beat then lay down the tracks,
gotta get it done so I can relax –

(refrain)

(refrain)

Didn’t get enough sleep last night.
When the moon went to bed, I was still uptight.
Maybe I’m just tryin’ too hard,
Playing solitare, yeah missing a card.
Where is my muse, man? Must ruminate!
Gotta make music, the call can’t wait.

(refrain)
