Status Quo - Hold You Back lyrics

How'd you know the music when you don't know the score?

Do you think that you can make it when you don't need no more?

Is it really the reason when it isn't not a need?

Are you trying hard to write it before you can read?

Refrein:

I hold you back, hold you back, slow you down (3x)

Slow you down, you've gotta try

Does the clock that you're watching ever tell you 'bout the time?

Does the song that you're singing sound to you like a rhyme?

Will there be an answer when you stop asking why?

Or because of the jigsaw that makes up a lie

Refrein

How'd you know the music when you don't know the score?

Do you think that you can make it when you don't need no more?

Is it really the reason when it isn't not a need?

Are you trying hard to write it before you can read?

Refrein (2x)

I hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
