[Intro: Jerry Harrison, Nona Hendryx and Dolette McDonald] Keep it simple (Keep in time) Keep it smooth (Don't break the rhyme) Let it breathe (Just take your time) Keep it smooth (If you want to) [Verse 1: Jerry Harrison] In this time of constant action When you're jarred for your reaction There's another way of getting through So many people in a hurry Pushing by you in their fury Trying to get there before you do [Verse 2: Jerry Harrison] If you've ever been through customs Or police who say, "Let's bust them!" It's the one who rushes who will lose You've got to control your panic Slow down, pause, and handle it It's the only way to get on through [Chorus: Jerry Harrison, Nona Hendryx and Dolette McDonald] So don't you rush it (Keep in timе) Don't you push it (Don't break the rhyme) Don't you shovе it (Just take your time) Don't you lose control (If you want to) You must keep it (Keep in time) Keep it cool (Don't break the rhyme) You must keep it (Just take your time) Keep it smooth (If you want to) I like to wait for the afternoon As life rushes by (slow down) If you pause for the noonday sun You won't even have to try [Bridge: Jerry Harrison] Have you ever been in a traffic jam? Have you ever needed a gram? Ha, ha, I have, but I got over it Uh-huh, I got over it [Verse 3: Jerry Harrison] Some people choose the darkness To imagine who their partner is Or to cover their embarrassment Well, there's a time of push and shove In both life and in love But for me, I'll take the afternoon [Chorus 2/Outro: Jerry Harrison, Nona Hendryx and Dolette McDonald] I don't rush it (Keep in time) I don't push it (Don't break the rhyme) I won't shove it (Just take your time) I won't lose control (If you want to) So don't you lose it (Keep in time) Don't you push it (Don't break the rhyme) Don't you shove it (Just take your time) Just keep it smooth (If you want to) I like to wait for the afternoon As life rushes by (take your time) If you pause for the noonday sun You won't even have to try Keep it simple (Keep in time) Keep it smooth (Don't break the rhyme) Keep it simple (Just take your time) And you won't lose (If you want to) So don't you rush it (Keep in time) Don't you push it (Don't break the rhyme) Don't you shove it (Just take your time) Don't you lose control (If you want to) I don't rush it (Keep in time) I don't push it (Don't break the rhyme) I won't shove it (Just take your time) I'll keep it smooth (If you want to) Keep it simple (Keep in time) Keep it cool (Don't break the rhyme) [?] (Just take your time) You won't lose (If you want to) So, I don't rush it (Keep in time) I don't push it (Don't break the rhyme) I don't shove it (Just take your time) I won't lose control (If you want to) So, keep it simple (Keep in time) Keep it smooth (Don't break the rhyme) Don't keep it simple (Just take your time) Keep it smooth (If you want to) Don't lose control (Keep in time) I won't lose control (Don't break the rhyme)
