[Verse 1]
Sometimes it rages, rock a little
Even when it's calm, rock a little
Just like the sea, still rock a little
Say it was just like me
Still rock a little

[Verse 2]
Then you knew her, funny little dancer
And you watched her all night long
You were trying to learn from her teachers
One thing that she wanted
She would not be tangled up
In it

[Chorus]
Hit it
It's about time, Lily
Oh, I know, Lily
Rock a little
Hit the stage, dancin'
Hit it

[Verse 3]
She's gone now
She says I've gone far beyond that song
Rock and roll ballerina
Where else would she go?
He knows his daughter
"Where does she live?"
He says, "Oh, up there somewhere"
Then he says, "Go ahead, Lily
[Chorus]
Hit it
Hit it
It's about time, Lily (Hit it)
Oh, rock on, Lily (Rock on)
Hit it, hit the stage

[Verse 4]
Lots of them and all one of a kind
But the most important thing was what was on her mind
Pale pink satin, worn out in a week
But you loved you the most
And you said:
"Go ahead, Lily

[Bridge]
Hit it"
No explanations and I tell you "No"
You say nothing
That is how songs are written
Stories are told, rumours are started

[Outro]
Go ahead, Lily
Hit it
It's about time Lily
Hit the stage, dancin'
I know, Lily
Hit it
Hit the stage
