Lyrics Bruce Hornsby

Bruce Hornsby

Levitate

Well, what have we here, what do I see?

I think someone's coming up to challenge me

I love it, I say bring it, I'm well prepared

Confidence rises with the heat out there

Well, this thing is great

My excitement will not abate

I will act and not hesitate

Listen all you can relate

Like a skater with the best of skates

Confidence elevates

Looking for an ecstatic state

You are the master of your own fate

Watch how we radiate

Get up little children, levitate

I look and I look for the euphoric state

We've been putting our time in while you were playing games

Searching for a state of ecstasy

The cynical armchair experts, I'll just let them be

Well, this thing is great

My excitement will not abate

I will act and not hesitate

Listen all you can relate

Like a skater with the best of skates

Confidence elevates

Looking for an ecstatic state

You are the master of your own fate

Gather 'round the school yard gate, history will record this date

Feel the shifting tectonic plates, you can get it even if you're straight

Allow me to illustrate how we humbly will create

Time for the shake and bake, get up little children, levitate

And the village children elevate

Come on, come on, come on

Come on, come on, come on levitate

And the village children levitate, elevate, levitate

This thing is great

My excitement will not abate

I will act and not hesitate

Listen all you can relate

Like a skater with the best of skates

Give a man a clean slate

I'm gonna, gonna stay up late

You are the master of your own fate

Gather round the schoolyard gate, history will record this date

Feel the shifting tectonic plates, you can get it even if you're straight

And the village children levitate, and the village children elevate

And the village children levitate, elevate, levitate

Allow me to illustrate how we humbly will create

Time for the master of time and space

Time for the shake and bake

This is how we levitate
