Just A Test Lyrics - Hello Nasty - Beastie Boys

It's like a flag at half mast as frames click fast 

Not a thing will last as past is past 

Like stacks of thoughts that got played and worn 

Used over and over till they were tired and torn 

Like a broken clock that can't tell time 

Like a thick ass book that's filled with wack rhymes 

Like a scorching blaze that burned the sand 

Like a band that planned and planned and planned 

And flew down like a raven in the dark of night 

And snatched up the worm helpless to fight 

And brought it back to the nest singing microphone check 

One two one two, this is just a test 

One two one two, this is just a test 

One two one two, this is just a test 

It's like sand in one hand You can't hold for long 

Like scheming on a plan that goes all wrong 

It's like fudge and caramel they're not the same 

And it's a shame all you talk is game 

You act like a diamond waiting to be set 

In a gold ring, as if, I bet 

As time goes by in this give and take 

As long as I learn I will make mistakes 

Now, what do I want? What do I need? 

Why do I want it? What's in it for me? 

It's the imagery of technology 

Is what you get is what you see 

Don't worry your mind 

When you give it your best 

One two one two this is just a test 

One two one two, this is just a test 

One two one two, this is just a test
