lyrics

Now listen up to the words of this song
We ain't got all day long
Think about all of the things that we've done
From the morn to the setting of the sun now
Looking back I remember a time
Everybody had a little dream just like mine
To reach the top is the plot is it not
But everybody gives up because its too tough right

Whatever happened to the good times
Where everybody worked hard, tried hard
To find a spark in their heart so they can take part in
Doing something impossible
Make something possible
Don’t let a trip or a fall put you down put your head up
move it up, and bounce

Who here wants to work hard
Who here wants to be heard
Who here wants a fresh start
Move it up, move it up, everybody move skyward
Who here wants a fast car
Who here wants a front yard
Who here wants to dream large
Move it up, move it up, everybody move skyward

You'll find that life ain't what you thought it would be
You gotta love what you got
And fight for the top coz
We only got this time (hey)
We only need this time (hey)
To make the world a better place
Work at your peak and make a better day

Whatever happened to the good times
the fire aint dead like a fire stays red
You can move it up if you follow this step just
Do something impossible
Make something possible
Don’t let a trip or a fall put down
Put your head move it up and bounce

Who here wants to work hard
Who here wants to be heard
Who here wants a fresh start
Move it up, move it up, everybody move skyward
Who here wants a fast car
Who here wants a front yard
Who here wants to dream large
Move it up, move it up, everybody move skyward

Saxy Tumzay on the microphone hey
No need to think just live like it's your last day
Every day, I will pray for the way for you and I to find that peace of mind
That love for your brother, love for another
Love for yourself so you'll never be bothered by the
Lack of attention, lack of motivation
You could be the star in any generation
A saxophone alone it could hold a note long enough
to mould a beautiful sound all around the room
But resume the bass boom with your feet to the beat together
Who needs the tone, who needs the groove, who needs to move
Yea we got all we need from all the truth yea
Saxy tumzay on the microphone hey
If you want the drop, put it up, everybody say

Who here wants to work hard
Who here wants to be heard
Who here wants a fresh start
Move it up, move it up, everybody move skyward
Who here wants a front yard
Who here wants a fast car
Who here wants to dream large
Move it up, move it up, everybody move skyward
