You've got a special something

Like a certain sorta air

Or maybe just the way you walk, the way you talk

You've got me thinkin'

'bout your stare

The way you're soakin' in

So much information

As your eyes flick past and your lips move fast

'cause you ain't got the time

To waste on temptation

And I just wanna listen

To the mismatched steps

Of your click-tick alligator heartbeat

Like the wipers

On a school bus

In their offbeat tango

Driver's side moves faster

But does it matter

If no one listens to the music?

But we hear it, we know

It's the background track to life

To life, to school

To school, to life

It's the songbird's tweet

And the front door's creak

And the tennis shoe squeak

On a wet tile floor

It's disjointed and unsure and off-key

But, hey

So are we

And don't you think

It'd be nice

If some people stopped waiting

For God to pick up

And just danced

To the hold music instead?

Maybe I've lost my mind

But if you find it

I don't want it back

'cause the world could do with a little more crazy

A little more dancin'

A little more laughin'

A little more happy

And you know,

That's fine by me

And those wipers can be offbeat

So long's they got one

And your heart

Can just keep on clickin', keep on tickin'

And it don't matter if it's lopsided

'cause the best grins are

Something special

To hold on to

Memory

A wonderful thing

But don't forget it's the past

Live in the present

Click-tick

Click-tick

Spread the laughter

Smile more

Dance to the music

Be offbeat

The world can do

With a little more crazy
