(Poole/Martin/Poole)

Intense…

Put your socks on and pull them up
We got a long ride and a velvet chair to sit on
E-mail junkies press your buttons now
The rocket fuel will last us ‘til we push the boat out

And everybody wants to know
Is what we’re given what we get?
I guess the answer is we don’t know yet

(Chorus)
Intense
(I know you’re feelin’ it, but what’s it coming to
When we wanna get a rocket ship outta here?)
Intense
(I know you’re feelin’ it, but what’s it coming to
When we wanna get a rocket ship outta here?)

I just got to tell you –
Yell it to ya girls and boys
We’re getting hotter, you feel it too?
Gotcha!

Put your smile on and keep it sweet
You got your ammunition on your back but you can’t use it
Are you a good soul or a bad egg?
And is our future wounded by philosophies our daddy had?
And everybody wants to see what the mirror cannot see
Or is it something that we just can’t see yet?

(Repeat Chorus)
I just got to tell you –
Yell it to ya girls and boys
We’re getting hotter
Gotcha!

The days go by and by, like your blood is running through you
Sometimes we sit and watch the world cry
Sunny starts the day, rainy it ends
But still they pass us by, like stress has got its hold on you
You never sit back, realise you’re so INTENSE
(Repeat Chorus to fade)
