Lyrics

Well, we got something new for you now, it's called "slow motion"

What's all that commotion going on?
The boy in the back on his second attack, he wants his baby back
Can you take her back?

What's all that commotion that you hear?
The girl in the back who was doing the quake got a belly ache
She can't concentrate

Pick up the beat, you can move like you're made out of vapor
"Catch me if you can" is what she said with her hands
Come on and take me back
Can you take her back?

When she gives you the beat and you get the shine, the world slows down and she stops on a dime
Got a number when you close your eyes like a real magician

Still you know she'll never lose a thing
Well, she can put you up on a shelf until she wants to pull the string
Still you know she'll never slip away
But you can keep time in your head, counting in your head

Slow motion
I can play with time
I can leave today but tomorrow's fine
Stop and look at the pictures rolling in your head

Slow motion
I can play with time
He can leave today but tomorrow's fine
Stop and live in your dreams at night, rolling in your bed

Still you know he'll never slip away
But you can keep time in your head, counting in your head

Slow motion, you can stop on the street
Slow motion, you can pick up a beat
Take me back on another track
Take me back, take me back

Slow motion, you can stop on a dime
Slow motion, you ought to try it sometime
Take me back on another track
Take me back, take me back

Slow motion, you can stop on the street
Slow motion, you can pick up a beat
Take me back on another track
Take me back, take me back
Slow motion
Slow motion
