You've gone too far this time  
<pre>You've gone too far this time
But I'm dancing on the valentine  
And I'm dancing on the valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around  
I tell you somebody's fooling around
With my chances on the dangerline
With my chances on the danger line
I'll cross that bridge when I find it  
I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand oh-whoa
Another day
High time is no time for deciding  
To make my stand, oh oh
If I should find a helping hand oh-whoa
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand, oh oh


Why don't you use it  
Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it  
Try not to bruise it?
Buy time don't lose it  
Buy time don't lose it


Why... why...
* Why don't you use it?
Why don't you use it  
  Try not to bruise it?
  Buy time don't lose it


The reflex is a lonely child  
The reflex is a lonely child
Just waiting by the park  
Who's waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding  
The reflex is a door to finding
A treasure in the dark  
Treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover  
And watching over lucky clover
Isn't that bizarre  
Isn't that bizarre
Every little thing the reflex does  
Every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark  
Leaves you answered with a question mark</pre>
 
Cha-la-la-la</pre>
