Fascinating Rhythm

Got a little rhythm, a rhythm, a rhythm That pitter pats through my brain So darn persistent, the day isn't distant When it'll drive me insane Comes in the morning without any warning And hangs around me all day I'll have to sneak up to it, someday and speak up to it I hope it listens when I say Fascinating rhythm, you've got me on the go Fascinating rhythm, I'm all a quiver What a mess you're making, the neighbors want to know Why I'm always shaking, just like a fliver Each morning I get up with the sun Start a hopping, never stopping To find at night no work has been done I know that once it didn't matter, but now you're doing wrong When you start to patter, I'm so unhappy Won't you take a day off, decide to run along Somewhere far away off, and make it snappy Oh, how I long to be the gal I used to be Fascinating rhythm, oh won't you stop picking on me I know that once it didn't matter, but now you're doing wrong When you start to patter, I'm so unhappy Won't you take a day off, decide to run along Somewhere far away off, and make it snappy Oh, how I long to be the gal I used to be Fascinating rhythm Fascinating rhythm Won't you stop picking on me
