[Verse 1]
Oh, baby, baby, wanna give it a chance?
Let me show you a brand new dance
Not for everybody, it's a way to romance
Just watch me do it, yeah, I call it
[Chorus]
Shakin' out the numb
Let me feel something
Shakin' out the numb
Shakin' out the numb
[Verse 2]
Give me hot water, give me freezing air
Give me the gossip and a reason to care
Shakin' out the numb
Shakin' out the numb
Not as easy as your ABC's
Gotta move your body like a kid, you see
Only pay attention to you and me
Forget about the breaking and the heat
[Chorus]
Shakin' out the numb (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Let me feel something (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Shakin' out the numb (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Shakin' out the numb (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Shakin' out the numb (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Let me feel something (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Shakin' out the numb
Shakin' out the numb
[Refrain]
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake
[Verse 3]
Pins and pins and needles then
Out there movin' with your friends
Shakin' to remember, shakin' to pretend
Shakin' to believe and shakin' to forget
Shakin' for the forest and shakin' for the sea
Shakin' for your mother and your father disease
Shakin' for the fakin', shaking for babies
Shakin' for the shakin', shakin' set you free
[Refrain]
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake (Shaking set you free)
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake (Shaking set you free)
[Chorus]
Shakin' out the numb (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Let me feel something (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Shakin' out the numb (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Shakin' out the numb (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Shakin' out the numb (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Let me feel something (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Shakin' out the numb
Shakin' out the numb
Shakin' out the numb (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Let me feel something (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Shakin' out the numb (Shake, shake, shake, shake)
Shakin' out the numb
