lyrics

It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Shocked awake in the middle of the day
In a fight over shadows of the night
And you wonder why the talk is so bold
When it's boring and the story's so old
Panicked call to her best friend on the phone
Won't sit down but she just can't sit alone
Hard to justify a party band
To somebody with no party plans
Stop to appreciate it
Let's hear the boyfriend say it
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Going good up until we shut 'em down
Bum a ride to the other side of town
In a restaurant with so much class
If we'd stop laughing we could almost pass
Some disaffected waitress
In some fake foreign accent
Joo si de lo ti fah no
Foo hahs po foo luh se
(I can't understand your accent)
Stop to appreciate it
Let's hear the boyfriend say it
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
It's kickin' in, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
