My first tune in ProTools. A fun little dance track that took about 8 months, most of which was spent learning ProTools!
Story behind the song
I've always wanted to do a dance track!
Lyrics
No Ifs Ands or Buts M. Kopnick 5/07
Can’t you just feel the heat, so many feel the beat,
Everyone’s got an edge, Joey’s standin’ out on the ledge,
Too many lives on hold, not enough pots o gold,
Somebody else’s pain, is somebody else’s gain,
Techno in a smoky club, too easy to fall in love,
Hurry it up no time to lose, everybody’s got to choose,
Get in while the gettin’s good, everybody says I should,
I just came to watch her dance, never wanted no romance,
No ifs ands or buts, get off your duff and hit the floor and just go nuts and let it go,
Don’t waste no time, let it shine, everybody’s doin fine, gotta let it flow,
Pick up the pace, show your face, and blow the roof off of this place, what a show,
When I think about stopping time, want to watch the world unwind,
Got to keep the dream alive, forget about my nine-to-five,
Got to move till I’m out of breath, I don’t smoke no cigarettes,
Didn’t come here just for the ride, came to walk on the other side,
It don’t matter what you drive, I don’t want to know your sign,
No need to know your name, need to know you came to play,
I just want to bump and move, I just want to hit every groove,
Wanna feel the bass drum pound, wanna feel it good and loud,
No ifs ands or buts, get off your duff and hit the floor and just go nuts and let it go,
Don’t waste no time, let it shine, everybody’s doin fine, gotta let it flow,
Pick up the pace, show your face, and blow the roof off of this place, what a show,
I never thought she’d go and do that, the future left and turned its back,
The net that used to break my falls, returns my letters and not my calls,
I thought we had just what it takes, but what I thought was my mistake,
Got all this love but I just can’t use it, all that’s left is the beat and music,
No ifs ands or buts, get off your duff and hit the floor and just go nuts and let it go,
Don’t waste no time, let it shine, everybody’s doin fine, gotta let it flow,
Pick up the pace, show your face, and blow the roof off of this place, what a show,
