(Inspired by John Hornstein, Steve Seligman/January 2019; and Kristie Brandt)
Busy Busy Busy, running around
Putting out fires before smoke comes around
Pushing Pushing Pushing but still losing ground
Not even listening just chasing the sound…
Don’t just do something – stand there!
Before you reason and relate – gotta get regulated, baby!
Yeah yeah yeah….
Churning churning churning – caught in the grind
Your brain is always thinking but nothing's in mind
Searching searching searching but missing the signs
Looking looking looking but your insight is blind
Don’t just do something – stand there!
Before you reason and relate – gotta get regulated, baby!
Yeah yeah yeah….
Emotions move at the speed of light
But thinking only moves at the speed of sound
Unless we can tame them and settle inside
They’re nothing but a trainwreck in the body bound….
Don’t just do something – stand there!
Before you reason and relate – gotta get regulated, baby!
Yeah yeah yeah….
