Get Back up Songtext

von Barenaked Ladies

I'm a little bit worse for wear
Got a little bit more grey hair
I'm not gonna be the next big thing, but I'm getting fitted for a new brass ring.
I been dunked, I've been kicked around
Now I'm ready for the big rebound
I know you can't win them all, but I'm swingin' like Pitt gettin' hits in Moneyball

Get back, get back up
You gotta get back, get back up
You got a whole stadium on their feet, it's not about a victory or a defeat
See you gotta get back, get back up
You gotta get back, get back up.

Not everything is sink or swim
You cant fly if the airs too thin
The best part of the ride is the freefall
Better keep your arms and legs in the vehicle.
Standing eight and I'm on the ropes
Knees givin' but I wont lose hope
Not the second coming of Muhammad Ali, but can I get a "WOOT" for the boxing imagery?

Get back, get back up
You gotta get back, get back up
You got a whole stadium on their feet, it's not about a victory or a defeat
See you gotta get back, get back up
You gotta get back, get back up.

Gotta get back, gotta get back
Gotta get back, gotta get back
Gotta get back, gotta get back
Gotta get back, gotta get back
Gotta get back, gotta get back
Gotta get back, gotta get back

Get back, get back up
You gotta get back, get back up
You got a whole stadium on their feet, it's not about a victory or a defeat
See you gotta get back, get back up
You gotta get back, get back up
Everybody's up on their feet, it's not about a victory or a defeat
See you gotta get back, get back up
You gotta get back, get back up

Gotta get back, gotta get back
Gotta get back, gotta get back
Gotta get back, gotta get back
Gotta get back, gotta get back
Gotta get back, gotta get back
Gotta get back, gotta get back
