don't think twice
don't even look
didn't care
but it took
this aint love
this aint lust
don't wanna do
but I must
she's a girl I gotta have
don't know why I gotta laugh
if she makes a living wreck
more than heart more than sex
I don't care, what the heck
just wanna see what comes next
jump
jump
jump
jump

but I must

if she makes a living wreck
more than heart more than sex
I don't care, what the heck
just wanna see what comes next

jump jump jump

the music is more than it's not

ten full hours that's a lot
give it all you got
got to jump it while we're young
got to sing it while it's sung
got to wring it while it's rung
got to get some
bounce off the back of court
make it last long not so short
make it jolt make it hop
keep on jumping never stop
