Settle Down

Stand up – Everybody - Hands up - Everybody
Freak out – Everybody - Scream, shout - Everybody
Make noise – Everybody - Girls, boys - Everybody
In the stands – Everybody - Heya, Ran - Heya, buddy

Hands up, it's a stick-up, now everybody get up
And get the place lit up bout as quick as a hiccup
The mic sounds nice, I’m loud and clear
Ready to get down in here, what up, Schaffer?

Hit you like it's Godzilla giving you high-fives
I've rocked a lot of audiences, none of them this live
Cranking up the volume knob and breaking it off
You’re like a big bunch of balloons, you're ready to pop

Never to stop the perpetual motion
Get lost in the rhythm till you feel like you're floating
With no coasting, lift your hands until you can't chill
Nobody's standing still

From the front of the stage to the back of the room
Y'all a powder keg, short fuse, set to go boom
Ease off the accelerator, pump that brake pedal down
Easy does it, for Pete's sake and settle down

In the back to the front of the stage
We're leaving all bars rattled like beasts in a cage
Put your fists down now, don’t even make a little sound
Slow your roll, take a break and settle down

Everybody take a deep breath
Settle down, you’re looking like you're needing your rest
Settle down, party people and tonight’s other acts
Settle down, maniacs, take a knee and relax

Check in, let's get a temperature taken
Because the needle of the ohmygod-o-meter's indicating
That the levels of hype in here are critical, excitement is visible
Visceral and growing unpredictable

Ok, I think you took the first verse a little too literal
You have now raised a ruckus that's become quite formidable
Which under most scenarios is totally permissible
But I’ma need you guys to maybe bring it down a little though

Now we know how you go and get so excited
But also there's chill here, we need y'all to find it
Your heart rates are heightened, your pupils are wide
Time to build a pillow fort and crawl up inside

May I suggest breathing or getting some rest?
Your energy is at eleven, are you under duress?
Come down a couple notches and cool your jets
And maybe act like you got some sense, relax

From the front of the stage to the back of the room
Y'all a powder keg, short fuse, set to go boom
Ease off the accelerator, pump that brake pedal down
Easy does it, for Pete's sake and settle down

In the back to the front of the stage
We're leaving all bars rattled like beasts in a cage
Put your fists down now, don't even make a little sound
Slow your roll, take a break and settle down

Everybody take a deep breath
Settle down, you're looking like you're needing your rest
Settle down, party people and tonight's other acts
Settle down, maniacs, take a knee and relax

Stand down – Everybody - Hands down – Everybody
No lights – Everybody - Night night – Everybody
Quiet – Everybody - Silence – Everybody
Sound, safe – Everybody - Ready, Schaff? - Ready, buddy!

Came in like a swarm of bees, should've been a butterfly
Brought along a banging beat, should've brought a lullaby
Take a couple Klonopin or chloroform aroma
Let's play a game called “Pretend We're in a Coma”

Yo, for real, try sleepy time tea to calm you
Every time we fall through we love to involve you
We always appreciate you giving us love
But if you don't relax we might get kicked out the club

Out of control with no choice, but soon the end will come
Listen to the sound of my voice and watch the pendulum
Your eyes are growing heavy, slip slow and deep
Now just go to sleep, just go to sleep

From the front of the stage to the back of the room
Y'all a powder keg, short fuse, set to go boom
Ease off the accelerator, pump that brake pedal down
Easy does it, for Pete's sake and settle down

In the back to the front of the stage
We're leaving all bars rattled like beasts in a cage
Put your fists down now, don't even make a little sound
Slow your roll, take a break and settle down
