Lyrics
|
|
Sometimes it rages...rock a little
|
Even when it's calm...still rock a little
|
Just like the sea...I rock a little
|
Say it was just like me
|
Still rock a little
|
|
Then you knew her...funny little dancer
|
And you watched her all night long
|
You were trying to learn from her teachers
|
One thing that she wanted
|
She would not be tangled up...in it
|
|
Hit it,
|
It's about time, lily
|
Oh, I know lily
|
Rock a little
|
Hit the stage...Hit the stage
|
Hit it,
|
Rock a little
|
|
She's home now;
|
She says I've gone far beyond that song
|
She says rock and roll ballerina
|
Where else would she go?
|
He knows his daughter, says
|
Where does she live?
|
He says, Oh, up there somewhere
|
|
Then he says, Go ahead, lily
|
Hit it,
|
Hit the stage, dancin'...go on
|
Hit it...Well, I know lily
|
It's about time, lily
|
Hit it
|
|
Well, I know lily
|
It's about time, lily
|
Hit it
|
Hit the stage
|
Hit it
|
|
Hit it, lily
|
It's about time, lily
|
Hit it
|
I know, lily
|
It's about time, lily
|
Hit the stage
|
Hit it, lily
|
|
Lots of them
|
And all one of a kind
|
But the most important thing was
|
What was on her mind
|
Pale...pink...satin...worn out in a week
|
But you loved you the most
|
And you said...
|
|
Go ahead, lily
|
Hit it
|
No explanations and I tell you no
|
You say...Nothing
|
That is how songs are written
|
Stories are told, rumours are started
|
|
That is how songs are written
|
Stories are told, rumours are started
|
|
Go ahead, lily
|
Hit it
|
It's about time lily
|
Hit the stage, dancin'
|
I know, lily
|
Hit it
|
Hit the stage
|
|
Go ahead, lily
|
Hit it
|
It's about time lily
|
Hit the stage, dancin'
|
I know, lily
|
Hit it
|
Hit the stage
|
|
Go ahead, lily
|
Hit it
|
It's about time lily
|
Hit the stage, dancin'
|
I know, lily
|
Hit it
|
Hit the stage
|
|
