“Keep ‘Em On They Toes” Lyrics

If you ever grow up
One thing you’ll find
Most people that you meet
Just about out their mind
They try to tell you how to live
They try to tell you how to die
They tell you don’t get too low, but don’t get too high
The best thing you can do is don’t listen too close
Walk on to your own beat
Keep em on they toes

Keep em on they toes
Your business outta sight
Make em look left if you’re gonna hang a right
If the pot’s hot don’t let em see your hand
Make em gotta know what they wouldn’t understand
The best thing you can do when the ignorance shows
Is walk on to your own beat
Keep em on they toes

If you never grow up you better stay that way
You can’t learn what you ain’t gotta change
Just listen to your heart, listen to the rain
Listen to whatever it is that keeps you sane
I don’t have to tell it cause you already know
Walk on to your own beat
Keep em on they toes

Keep em on they toes
Your business outta sight
Make em look left if you’re gonna hang a right
If the pot’s hot don’t let em see your hand
Make em gotta know what they wouldn’t understand
The best thing you can do when the ignorance shows
Is walk on to your own beat
Keep em on they toes

I don’t have to tell it cause y’all already know
Walk on to your own beat
And keep em on they toes
