Silly Millameter Lyrics

Time to groove down
Just when I can't face the night
Feeling wide awake
I know that I should be sleepin'
But it don't seem that late
I sneak around behind at night
And much to my surprise
I ain't doin' no right, I'm keepin' time with
I know it catches up with time
I'm ahead of time in style
I'm ahead of time in style
Ahead of time in style
Ahead of time in style
Get ready
Just when I can't face my watch
Gettin' a little bit late
Much too soon to get it started
But I can not wait
Shake, shake boy what's wrong with cha
You know what's gonna get cha
Shake boy what's wrong with cha
You know what's gonna get cha
I sleep around behind the high times bed
And much to my surprise
Money catches up with time
But I am ahead of time in style
In style, in style
Shake, shake boy what's wrong with cha
You know what's gonna get cha
Shake boy what's wrong with cha
You know what's gonna get cha
Move your body, yeah heh heh
Move your body, yeah heh heh
Move your body, yeah heh heh
Move your body, yeah heh heh
Move your body, yeah heh heh
Move your body, yeah heh!
Get ready!
Just when I can't face my watch
Gettin' a little bit late
Much too soon to get it started
But I can not wait, no
I sleep behind, behind, behind the high times bed
Much to my surprise
Money catches up with time
I'm ahead of time in style
Ahead of time in style
Ahead of time in style
Shake, shake boy what's wrong with you
You know what's gonna get you
Shake, shake boy what's wrong with you
You know what's gonna get you
Ahead of time inside
Move your body, move your body...
Money catches up with time

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
