Lets Get Ready to Turn It On by Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq Lyrics
[Opening]
And a 1, 2, a 1 2 3 4
[Verse]
Right then, pay attention, we need to have a word
You might not like what I’m about to say
Quite frankly your behaviour can sometimes be absurd
And first impressions linger when people walk away
Park all the petty grievances outside
If you need to, lie down in a darkened room
Check your stubborn misdirected pride
Have a stiff swig of whiskey, this will be over very soon
[Chorus]
But Let’s Get Ready to Turn It On
And at least make it look as If we are having fun
Save the snark and pessimism to pеople who have gone
Lеt’s Try to Turn It On
Let’s Get Ready to Turn It On
Don’t drop out now before the party’s begun
Be as sullen as you like when the evening’s done
But Let’s Try to Turn It On
[Verse]
Look, I know this can be something of a chore
But it’s ,time to take a breath now and be strong
And really! You might have considered this before
You sent the RSVP and agreed to come along
Take a long hard look in the mirror at your face
And curb the sarcastic tone for now
Wind your neck in! This is neither, the time nor the place
We need to find a way, to play the game somehow
[Chorus]
But Let’s Get Ready to Turn It On
And try to put a cap on all the terrible puns
Resist the urge to grab your coat and run
Let’s Try to Turn It On
Let’s Get Ready to Turn It On
With some effort some small favour can be easily won
Put a zip on it now or it’ll come undone
Let’s Try and turn it on
[Bridge – Madam Misfit]
[Chorus]
Let’s get ready to turn it on
If someone asks a question at least try to respond
Interactions like this do not need to be prolonged
Let’s try to turn it on
Let’s get ready to turn it on
If you simply try it out you might prove yourself wrong
Come on now champ, you know that you can be strong
Let’s try to turn it on
Let’s get ready to turn it on
And a 1, 2, a 1 2 3 4
[Verse]
Right then, pay attention, we need to have a word
You might not like what I’m about to say
Quite frankly your behaviour can sometimes be absurd
And first impressions linger when people walk away
Park all the petty grievances outside
If you need to, lie down in a darkened room
Check your stubborn misdirected pride
Have a stiff swig of whiskey, this will be over very soon
[Chorus]
But Let’s Get Ready to Turn It On
And at least make it look as If we are having fun
Save the snark and pessimism to pеople who have gone
Lеt’s Try to Turn It On
Let’s Get Ready to Turn It On
Don’t drop out now before the party’s begun
Be as sullen as you like when the evening’s done
But Let’s Try to Turn It On
[Verse]
Look, I know this can be something of a chore
But it’s ,time to take a breath now and be strong
And really! You might have considered this before

Let’s try to turn it on
Let’s get ready to turn it on
