Know you can count on me
Know you can count on me
Know you can count on me

To get so up for it
Know you can count on me
I'll get so up for it
I know at least I'll try
Who am I if I'm not up for it
Where are you if I'm not up for it
Want to put a bubble round you
With a force field switch
Keep you secured just a little bit
But I know a secret child is just
A silly trick
Who grows up to lose a force field switch

In between a hands on and a hands off
Apprenticeship
Where are you if I'm not up for it
I'll get up for it
Know you can count on me
Know you can count on me
Know you can count on me
To get so up for it
Know you can count on me
I'll get so up for it
Know at least I'll try
