Lyrics for Fascinatin' Rhythm

Fascinating rhythm You've got me on the go! Fascinating rhythm I'm all a-quiver When a mess you're making! The neighbours want to know Why I'm always shaking Just like a flivver Each morning I get up with the sun To find at night no work has been done I know that Once it didn't matter But now you're doing wrong When you start to patter I'm so unhappy Won't you take a day off? Decide to run along Somewhere far away off And make it snappy! Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be! Fascinating rhythm On won't you stop picking on me? Fascinating rhythm Fascinating rhythm Each morning I wake up with the sun To find at night no work has been done I know that Once it didn't matter But now you're doing wrong When you start to patter I'm so unhappy Won't you take a day off? Decide to run along Somewhere far away off And make it snappy! Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be! Fascinating rhythm On won't you stop picking on me? Fascinating rhythm Fascinating rhythm on me
