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 got me on the go
Fascinating rhythm, I'm all a-quiver
What a mess you're making, the neighbors wanna know
Why I'm always shaking just like a flivver
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 man I used to be
Fascinating rhythm, oh, won't you stop picking on me?
[Instrumental Break]
Fascinating rhythm, you got me on the go
Fascinating rhythm, I'm all a-quiver
What a mess you're making, neighbors wanna know
Why I'm always shaking just like a flivver
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 man I used to be
Fascinating rhythm, won't you stop picking on me?
Fascinating rhythm, fascinating rhythm, fascinating rhythm
Stop picking on me
