Once you get the ball rolling, it's tough to stand still!
Well, you never listen when I'm talkin' to you
All this foolin' around won't do you any good
You don't take my advice or care about what I say
We got the same blood, wanna help ya find your way
Gonna help you anyway
You keep tellin' me Brother, now I've got it all learned
They say who plays with fire, well, he might get burned
You keep dancin' to the music that gets you in the groove
And you say you wanna be your own guru
Speed, sex and action, like you see in the flicks
I used to do the same to get my kicks
One thing I know, now you gotta believe
Once you get the ball rolling, it's tough to stand still!
Hey, don't ya think it's time for you to grow
And get back on the track, the right one, you know
'Cmon try a little harder to lift up your head
Even though you're running the wrong way instead
Won't you try a little harder
Every forbidden fruit, you wanna take a bite
Any new game in town, you gotta take a ride
Gold-plated door of temptation, can't turn away
And still you wanna be your own dee-jay
Speed, sex and action, like you see in the flicks
I used to do the same to get my kicks
One thing I know, now you gotta believe
Once you set the ball rolling, it's tough to stand still
Yeah, if you get the ball rolling, it's hard to stand still
Once you got the ball rolling, bet you can't stand still!
No way to stand still, hard to stand still
Just can't stand still, no way, no way, no way
Once you got the ball rolling, it's tough to stand still!
