Recess Lyrics
[Hook: Michael Angelakos]
Fight till you can't fight
Everybody's alright
Don't let it stop, don't let it stop
D-don't let it stop till we make it to the daylight
Fight till you can't fight (Fight till you can't fight)
Everybody's alright (Everybody's alright)
Don't let it stop, don't let it stop
D-don't let it stop till we make it to the daylight
Fight till you can't fight (Fight till you can't fight)
Everybody's alright (Everybody's alright)
Don't let it stop, don't let it stop
D-don't let it stop till we make it to the daylight
[Post-Hook 1: Fatman Scoop and (Michael Angelakos)]
(Fight till you can't fight) Turn it up!
(Everybody's alright) Turn it up!
