Lyrics
Goin' through the motions, tryin' not to snore
Didn't know the gun was loaded
Goin' through my motion, caught without an oar
Someone said they all were phony
Time out, save the play (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Try to make the lie last, any old way we can (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Signed out all the way (ooh, ooh, ooh)
When you speak your mind out, never say what you plan (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
I met her in the hallway, bangin' on the door
Askin' what the funny smell was
Wake you up and tell you, it's okay to sleep some more
By the way, is there any you can sell out?
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
So the case is gettin' hotter, hear me tell you, Jack
Stick 'em up, you've just been busted
Your basement's full of water, got above the tide
Hope to God the pump ain't rusted
Signed out all the way (ooh, ooh, ooh)
When you speak your mind out, never say what you plan (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Time out, save the play (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Try to make the lie last, any old way we can (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
