Intro: 0:00 - 0:08
Verse: 0:09 - 0:32
I get you ready for the breakdown
I'm the feeling inside you that just wants to explode
I never sugarcoat a shakedown
So empty all your pockets of the things that you think you know
You can bow to the prophet
You can make him an offer
But you're gonna reap what you sow
I get you ready for the breakdown
I'm the feeling inside you
You know you will never control
Chorus: 0:33 - 0:43
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Verse: 0:44 - 1:09
I know the sound that drags you downtown
Drags you from your job and the hardwired boredom of house
I see you changing from the neck down
Do you walk it like you talk it?
Or say it just to hear it out loud?
You can drag it for miles
You can make it your style
Never do you much good in the ground
I get you ready for the breakdown
I'm the something inside you that makes
You want to slither and howl
Chorus: 1:10 - 1:21
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Break: 1:22 - 1:51
A (stay on the A-chord for several bars)
One good love so don't let it breakdown
Something in there that never should shutdown
Your precious will
Feed your precious will
Guard your precious will
Your precious will
Verse: 1:52 - 2:15
I get you ready for the breakdown
The finest minds of my generation
All connected to the zeroes and ones
By now you know this is a shakedown
So empty all your pockets
Of the things you thought you had done
I bowed to the prophet
And I did it so often
He said, "man, you look good in my clothes.."
I get you ready for the breakdown
I'm the feeling inside you
It just wants to explode
Chorus: 2:16 - end
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Answer: Your Precious Will
