Sitting around guessin', haven’t you learned you lesson
Goin' straight to the end, don’t you know you’ll never win?
Can’t step back ’cos it’s time you lack
If you're trying to do what’s best for you
We’re moving minds, it’s action time
We’re moving minds, it’s action time
Get it up, get it up, get it up

Beaucoup buying, got your pockets crying
Goin' left and right, moves like day and night
It takes one to see, what two can do
We can make it get there me and you

We’re moving minds, it’s action time
We’re moving minds, it’s action time
We’re moving minds, it’s action time
We’re moving minds, it’s action time
Get it up

Picking up pieces is so plain
Living on leases sure is strange
It takes one to see, what two can do
We can make it get there, me and you
You're going to see, you're going to see
Get it up, get it up, get it up
