Debbie Gibson: One step ahead

Watch it Watch it. Watch it! Go! RAP: Always gotta be one step ahead You know where you're lying when you make your own bed You'll never end up in the red So watch your step, one step ahead INTRO: Energy up! Bring the energy up! On the double VERSE 1: Steppin' on toes is a common routine Sneakin' up from behind You won't get anywhere Dancin' out of time If you're living up to expectations You may as well be dead Gotta go for it - gotta go for it Always gotta be one step ahead So - CHORUS: Don't calm down Bring the energy up Don't depend on lady luck Can't walk - you just run instead If you want to be one step ahead VERSE 2: Look over your shoulder And predict what's to come You're not feeling life if you're simply numb So don't be dumb - grab the brass ring You really can't depend on anything Gotta make it happen all by yourself Why rely on anyone else? So- CHORUS Don't calm down Bring the energy up Don't depend on lady luck Can't walk - why not run instead? If you wanna be one step, one step ahead BRIDGE: This dream is holding me tight Keeping me up all night - oh It's not out of reach - just out of sight Do you think I'll get it? Think I may, say I might - oh - This dream is holding me tight Keeping me tossing and turning It's not out of reach - just out of sight Do you think I'll get it? With the way I'm burning I just might! It's time to rap - Huh! RAP: Always gotta be one step ahead You know where you're lying when you make your own bed You'll never end up in the red So watch it! Don't calm down, bring the energy up You gotta go for it, go for it, go for it Don't calm down, bring the energy up You gotta go for it, go for it, go for it Don't calm down, bring the energy up (You gotta go for it, go for it, go for it) Are you listenin'? Don't calm down, bring the energy up (You gotta go for it, go for it, go for it) Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah! Don't calm down Bring the energy up Don't depend on lady luck Can't walk - gonna run instead If you want to be one step ahead (I know you do, huh!) (Don't calm down, bring the energy up) You gotta be one step ahead, If you know what's good for you If you know what's good for you (Don't calm down, bring the energy up) Don't - no - why rely on lady luck? Don't calm down, bring the energy up!
