Tightrope歌詞

Monae and Leftfoot
Another day
I take your pain away

Some people talk about ya
Like they know all about ya
When you get down they doubt ya
And when you tippin on the scene
Yeah they talkin bout it
Cause they can’t tip on the scene
What ya talk about it
T-t-t talk about it
When you get elevated
They love it or they hate
You dance up on the them haters
Keep getting funky on the scene
While they jumpin round you
They trying to take all your dreams
But you can’t allow it

Cause baby whether you’re high or low
Whether you’re high or low
You got to tip on the tightrope
T-t-t tip on the tightrope
Baby baby whether you’re high or low
Baby whether you’re high or low
You got to tip on the tightrope
Now let me see you do the tightrope
And I’m still on tippin on it

See I’m not walking on it
Or tryin to run around it
This ain’t no acrobatics
You either follow or you lead
Yeah I’m talkin bout you
I’ll keep blaming the machine
Yeah I’m talkin bout it
T-t-t talkin bout it

I can’t complain about it
I gotta keep my balance
And just keep dancing on it
We gettin funky on the scene
And you know about it
Like the star on the screen *
Watch me tip all on it

Now baby whether I’m high or low
Baby whether you’re high or low
You got to tip on the tightrope
Yeah tip on the tightrope
Baby baby whether you’re high or low
Baby whether you’re high or low
You got to tip on the tightrope
Baby let me see you tightrope
And I’m still on tippin on it

You gotta keep your balance or you’ll fall into the gap
It’s a challenge but I manage cause I’m cautious with the strap
Do damage to your cameras that a dot cannot pass
See why you don’t want no friction like the back of a matchbook
Daddy Fat Sax will fold you and your Macbook
Close shows shut you down before we go go backwards
Act up and whether we high or low we gonna get back up
Like the Dow Jones or Nasdaq
Sorta like a thong in an asscrack

I tip on alligators
And little rattlesnakers
But I’m another flavor
Something like a terminator
Ain’t no equivocating
I fight for what I believe
While you talkin bout it
Sh-sh she’s talkin bout it
Some callin me a sinner
Some callin me a winner
I’m callin you to dinner
Hey you know exactly what I mean
Yeah I’m talking bout you
You can rock or you can leave
Watch me tip without you

Now now now whether I’m high or low
Whether I’m high or low
I’m gonna tip on the tightrope
Mmmmm
Baby baby whether i’m high or low
High or low
I got to tip on the tightrope
Now baby tip on the tightrope

You can’t get too high
I said you can’t get too low
Cause you get too high
No you’ll surely be low
1 2 3

Now shut up
Now put some voodoo on it
Ladies and gentlemen
The funkiest horn section in Metropolis **
We call that “classy brass”
