One Drink Johnny

Lyrics

Well I guess I'm not the only one who freaks out to myself In the middle of a crowd did I just say that out loud Well my greatest performance will be that bit on confidence One shot until I know who I am I thank God you can't read my thoughts And I thank God I took the chance When you get a minute Can I get a minute from you Spend time on the dance floor too Break it down build it back up new When the music hits on cue Everybody cut loose Found your groove put it on loop and dig yourself into it do it Transparency could make you look foolish Listen to critics then we stop hearing music Loud and clear let me know that you're hearing it Everybody connect to the experience In unison one swift movement Forget the hype nothing's exclusive I know you want to get down Cut up the rug and tear it out So what's you what's your whereabouts It comes together right here and now A good time is paramount I can hear the sweetest sound Absorb the atmosphere around Let me see your hands now Put em up in the atmos' Room shaking like the Holy Ghost Everybody wants to lose control Everybody let your body go Turn it up sound system blaring go to sleep listen to your ears ring Tune in selective hearing are you ready to start the show Not sure what's in store or what exactly you came here for Not one to force an encore I'll say goodnight you say more They call me one drink Johnny I put the art into party I'm not too late I'm not too early Perfect timing Right down the middle gonna split em half I think this side's much louder than that Say yeah where you at I'll say echo the room yells back... Backstage you can hear the crowd buzzin Jump the gun interrupt the introduction Don't need to play it cool we're excited to be here It's in our body language check the demeanor Keep it rocking crowd pleasing You and me is a good enough reason You can pick what time in the evening It ain't stopping until you're leaving So it begins at a half past 10 we all showed up to tear the place up When it ends at 5am on my porch Sipping coffee with the steam wafting Like to get up before the world does Doesn't take much for me to get a buzz Up all night the morning came fast Let's toast until there's broken glass They call me one drink Johnny I put the art into party I'm not too late I'm not too early Perfect timing Intoxicating stimulating A good imagination is never dated We were in the zone timelessly sedated Take a second to pause Notice the nuance Throw that imagery against the wall Senses heightened on overload Every crook cranny crevice stone Pin drop bottle top quiet place hot spot Took the bus into the city From grim and gritty street lamps lit dimly Forget bright lights we got glow stick money Party people in the place to be since the first time I said it in '93' When i was young it came so carefree no need to fight the feeling Booked a show before I had a beat Put my fingers on an MPC a few seconds to loop a lifetime to Dream still want to master the ceremony The Picasso of crowd control I've been told Picasso of crowd control so you know You can't spell party without art
