Sufjan Stevens - Calm It Down lyrics

(performed by Sisyphus) [Serengeti:] All right When you feel Like you just can't stop Jumping And bumping When you feel Like you just can't stop Sending telegram After telegram And when you feel like throwing (All right) All your books in the air You need to catch it Just catch it When you feel Like you just can't stop (Can't stop) Twisting and turning And burning sh** (wait a second, wait a second) [Hook:] You need to calm it down Calm it down You need to calm it down You need to calm it down You need to calm it down You need to calm it down You need to calm it down Calm it down You need to calm it down Calm it down Calm it down Calm it down Calm it down You need to calm it down You need to calm it down You need to calm it down [Segue:] C-c-c-c-c-c-calm it down C-c-c-c-c-c-calm it down C-c-c-c-c-c-calm it down C-c-c-c-c-c- [Serengeti:] And when you feel (Like what?) Like you just can't stop (Why's that? Why's that?) Chasing your dreams Impossible dreams Impossible dreams And when you feel Like driving your car (Nope, nope) Into a telephone pole Just stop it You got it (Hit the brakes) And when you feel (Come on) Like f**ing sh** up (Yeah) Let's f** sh** up Let's f** sh** up Let's f** sh** up (See what happens if...) And when you feel (How do you feel?) Like you just can't stop (My bad) Talking sh** about each other All the time All the time [Hook:] You need to calm it down (Calm it down) Calm it down (You need to calm it down) You need to calm it down (You need to calm it down) You need to calm it down (Calm it down) You need to calm it down (Calm it down) Calm it down (Yo, take it down) You need to calm it down (You need to calm it down) Calm it down (Just take it easy) You need to calm it down Calm it down Calm it down Calm it down Calm it down You need to calm it down You need to calm it down You need to calm it down [Bridge:] When your fists don't fly (Yeah, calm it down) When your grips don't got (OK, calm it down) When your twerps don't tweak (You gotta calm it down) When your perps don't peep (All right, calm it down) When your hips don't dip (Yeah, calm it down) And the kicks don't hit (Calm it down) When your ships don't ship (OK, calm it down) When your life don't life (Just calm it down) When your mix don't match (How about calming down?) When your rips don't patch (Take it easy) When your keys don't lock (Just relax) When your beats don't knock (OK, OK, yeah) When your dogs don't bite (Calm it down) When your bull don't fight (Just take it easy) When your time stands still (Just calm it down) Can you tell me how you feel? (Just) [Sufjan Stevens (Serengeti):] I'm on my own two feet But I'm not standing upright Mine is the pressure Mine is the pain (You need to calm it down You need to calm it down) Was it the d** I take? (You need to calm it down) Was it ambitious outbreak? (You need to calm it down) Mine is the fury Mine is the gain (You need to calm it down You need to calm it down) Shall I account for peace? (You need to calm it down) Shall I resist it my way? (You got to calm it down) Mine is the glory (You got to calm it down) Mine is the praise (You got to calm it down) (You need to calm it down You need to calm it down You need to calm it down Calm it down) Now that I feel that shame I've got every reason to persuade (Calm it down) Mine is the problem (You got to calm it down) Mine is the pain (You got to calm it down) [Son Lux:] I'm on my own two feet But I'm not standing upright Mine is the pressure Mine is the pain Was it the d** I take? Was it ambitious outbreak? Mine is the fury Mine is the gain Shall I account for peace? Shall I resist it my way? Mine is the glory Mine is the praise Now that I feel the shame I've got every reason to persuade Mine is the problem Mine is the pain
