Never Stop

Albert Hammond Jr.

Compositor: Simon Wilcox / Albert Hammond Jr

I can't stand you, sir
You're going down
'Cause you'll never be tough
I don't know why, but I got me in notion
Been compromised by the eyes of emotion
You go out there
You bring in the bad news
You're like the beast comin' down
But, you're not about to take me

I never stop, never stop
I believe in comin' round, comin' round
I don't know, everyone says now it's unfashionable
At least it pays

Can't tell you why I'm always in motion
Been getting by, a method of coping
And everyone they told me to choose
They said: Hey babe, I don't know why you got so much to prove

'Cause I never stop
Still you come 'round here just to beat me down
I got me some hurt
You know I can bleed
Called me an old man, but I never hit the ground

I check the dials and I check the distortion
Yeah, I like it loud
She got me down when she left me alone
But I'm bout to drown her out
That's just the simple stuff

I don't know why every man has a season
Look at me now, only blessed when I'm sneezin'
Still got my moves, got my cigarettes
She says she danced all alone
Till she bumped into me

'Cause I never stop (ooh)
It's why my time is comin' round
Gotta know
She's feeling sorry now
She'll look at me when I'm back up again, and not down and out
Too bad for you that you lack the devotion to weather it
Heavy now, heavy now
I won't be done, I can't let go 'cause I'm heavy now
Check me now
Got to invest so I can keep alive

Dig in my heels like a rock in the ocean
Snap my suspenders like I rack in the dough
I don't know why keep livin' like I do, I got to dance every day
If you don't use it you lose, so I never stop
Don't you go underestimate me now
All I know
Only way
Gotta believe my time is comin' round
