Phineas: So you're saying that you don't have rhythm
But listen what you're doing right there!
With that stamp and a book
You've got a real nice hook
Sounds to me like you've got rhythm to spare

Sherman: I have no idea what you're talking about
I've got as much rhythm as that chair
What happened to me was a tragedy
But I don't have to be a millionaire

Look, I got a sweet deal going on here
I got all the books that I can read
All these sweet old ladies and this carpet from the 80's
What more could a librarian need?

Woman: Ssh!

Sherman: Besides, I ain't got rhythm
No, I ain't got rhythm
Said I ain't got rhythm
I ain't got rhythm!

Phineas: You're kidding me right, y-you're kidding me
Don't you see what you were doing right then?
That's a wicked groove you were starting to move
Mister, you got rhythm times ten

Sherman: I think perhaps that you're not listening
I find it tedious to repeat
It's no big crime
I just can't keep time
I'm telling you I lost the beat

I don't need my face on T-shirts
Or hit a power-chord guitar
They were screaming my name
I guess it's a shame
But I don't need to be a rock star

Besides, I ain't got rhythm
No, I ain't got rhythm
Said I ain't got rhythm
I ain't got rhythm!
I ain't got rhythm
Phineas: Sounds like rhythm to me!
Sherman: No, I ain't got rhythm
Phineas: Seems like they all agree!
Sherman: Said I ain't got rhythm
Phineas: But you're laying down
Sherman: (I ain't got rhythm!)
Phineas: Some funky syncopation!

Sherman: I ain't got rhythm
Phineas: But you got that beat!
Sherman: No, I ain't got rhythm
Phineas: Look at them, they're stomping their feet!
Sherman: Said I ain't got rhythm
Phineas: It's time for you to rock
Phineas and Sherman: A brand new generation
Library patrons: Brand new generation
Sherman: Gonna rock a
Phineas and Sherman: Brand new generation
Sherman: Because I ain't got rhythm!

Woman: (sigh) Would you just go join the band?

(Music style switches to a swing tune)

Library patrons: Ain't got rhythm!
Sherman: Hey, hey!
Library patrons: Ain't got rhythm!
Sherman: Hey, look at... !
Library patrons: Ain't got rhythm!
Sherman: Look at that trick!
Library patrons: Ain't got rhythm!
Sherman: Check it out! Look at me!

(Drum solo)

Sherman: Hey, I got rhythm!
