I've got
a little rhythm, a rhythm,
a rhythm
that pitter -pats through my brain
So darn persistent the
day isn't distant
when it will drive me insane
Comes in the morning
without any warning
and hangs around all day
I'll have to sneak up to it someday
and speak up to it
I hope it listens when I say
Fascinating Rhythm
You got me on the go
Fascinating Rhythm
I'm all a quiver
What a mess you're making
The neighbours want to know
Why I'm always shaking
Just like a flipper
Each morning I wake up with the sun
Start hopping, never stopping
To find that 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,
oh won't you stop picking on me,
yes.
Fascinating rhythm,
you got me on the go.
Fascinating rhythm, I'm all a quiver.
What a mess you're making,
the neighbors want to know
why
I'm always shaking like a quiver.
Each morning, each morning
I wake up with the sun.
Fine, fine, at night no
work has been done.
I know that once it didn't matter,
But now you're doin' wrong
When you start to fatter,
I'm so unhappy
Won't you take a day off, run along
Go in the country and make it snappy
Oh, how I long to be the man
I used to be
Fascinatin' rhythm,
fascinatin' rhythm
Fascinatin' rhythm, oh,
won't you stop pickin' on me?
