Ready, Set, Go (2010)

I see a lot of people, eager for a party

Totally fed up after working for a week

You’ve come to dance and not to simply cheer the artists

But the way you stand there you just look a bit too meek

    So you best get ready for the lift-off, better check your shoes are tied

    You can guess this is a ride without a pit-stop, we have come to make you dance all night

So now release the tension, it’s time to lose control

I feel the apprehension, I see you want to go

But I sense a dissension, I think you move too slow

Can I get your attention? On your marks, ready, set, go



That was a warming-up I see you caught the drift, yeah

Just a bit rusty, but we’ve got the gears a-turning

We had to start you up, but now you’re in a pit, well

that’s how we like it, and I see that you are yearning

    To move your body like a bulldog, bite down, shake hard and fight

    Tenaciously rockin’ to the rooftop, and feel your troubles taking flight

So now release the tension, it’s time to lose control

I feel the apprehension, I see you want to go

If you’d ask my opinion, I still think you move too slow

There’s no more time for swinging. On your marks, ready, set, go



(guitar)

We are just teasing you by slowing down again, now

I promise from now on we’ll rock you at full speed

Some pleasant reggae, catch your breath and shake your legs out

Release the last reserves and show us that you mean (it)

    You needed some excitement, needed to cut the strain, 

    you needed peaceful fighting, needed to let sweat rain

    We’ve got you all enlightened, by simple entertain-ment, 

    and there’s no use denying you are ready for the final take

So now release the tension, it’s time to lose control

I feel the apprehension, I see you want to go

You have convinced us proper, you’ve put on quite a show

We have no chance to stop you. On your marks, ready, set, GOOOO

(trombone)
