Slow Motion Lyrics

[Verse]
So they say practice makes you perfect
So they say you can't teach an old dog

So they say have an apple a day
So they say better safe than sorry

[Refrain]
Everyone knows what they say
Everyone knows what they say
Everyone knows what they say
Everyone knows what they say
Everyone knows what they say
Everyone knows what they say
Everyone knows what they say
Everyone knows what they say


[Chorus]
And when I slow it down
It's clear just how
It's what they don't say
That's what counts

[Outro]
It's counting
And be sure it counts
It's counting
And be sure it counts
It's counting
And be sure it counts
It's counting, counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
And be sure it counts
It's counting
And be sure it counts
It's counting, counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's counting, it's counting
It's count—

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
