Don't Get Excited - Graham Parker

There is always some advantage to be wielded and brought to bear

It’s a lonely occupation keeping others out of your hair

Fingers on all the switches talk in whispers talking soft

You know all my favourite bitches you know what gets me off

But try to reach a vital part of me My interest level’s dropping rapidly

It’s all excuses baby all a stall I just don’t get excited

I’ve been running round in circles and jump jump jumping out of cars

They put animals in cages specimens in jars

It’s summer now there’s no temptation and baby nails digging under skin

It don’t give me the right sensation it’s just another thing

You try to reach a vital part of me My attention span is dropping rapidly

It’s all excuses baby all a stall We just don’t get excited

Don’t get excited No Don’t get excited Don’t get excited

Bridge

Talk about it talk about it all night long

Think about it think about it nothing’s wrong

Don’t get excited Don’t get excited Don’t get excited C

Don’t get excited Don’t get excited Don’t get excited Don’t get excited

Solo over C D

Baby listen without thinking you better be without demands

Now don’t get edgy and don’t start blinking and don’t start making any plans

You try to reach a vital part of me My interest level’s dropping rapidly

It’s all excuses baby all a stall We just don’t get excited

Don’t get excited No don’t get excited Don’t get excited

Repeat and fade
