Jimmy’s out of place same as ashtrays and column shifts
Said his last old lady nearly run him in the ground
Half a gram later I was hearing Jimmy loud
She lives all alone in a house on a hill
She thinks she’ll marry
But, she never will…
Are you old enough to marry, do you think?
Won’t you wait till you are eighty in the shade?
There’s a fascination frantic
In a ruin that’s romantic;
Do you think you are sufficiently decayed?
To the matter that you mention
I have given some attention
And I think I am sufficiently decayed
If that is so
Sing derry down derry!
It’s evident, very
Our tastes are one
Away we’ll go
And merrily marry
Nor tardily tarry
'Til day is done!
To claim me back from the dead
The creatures back from vertigo
They fear to fall but haven’t fell
Cause I going make you see
There’s nobody else here, no one like me
I’m special
(Special)
So special
(Special)
I got have some of your attention, give it to me
I got rhythm, I can’t miss a beat
I got a new Skank, so reet
Got something, I’m winking at you
Gonna make you, make you, make you notice
I got rhythm, I got music, I got my man,
Who could ask for anything more?
I’ve got daisies in green pastures,
I’ve got my man,
Who could ask for anything more?
Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do
I’m half crazy all for the love of you
It won’t be a stylish marriage
I can’t afford a carriage
But you’ll look sweet upon the seat
Of a bicycle built for two
I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike
I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride it where I like
I ride my bike, I roller skate, don’t drive no car
Don’t go so fast, but I go pretty far
For somebody who don’t drive, I’ve been all around the world
Some people say I’ve done all right for a girl
You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way
See I remember we were driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
I’ve been drivin’ all night, my hand’s wet on the wheel,
There’s a voice in my head that drives my heel,
It’s my baby callin’, says I need you here,
And it’s a half past four and I’m shiftin’ gear.
When she is lonely and the longing gets too much,
She sends a cable comin’ in from above,
Don’t need no phone at all,
We’ve got a thing that’s called radar love…
I don’t want a pickle
Just want to ride on my motorcycle
And I don’t want a tickle
'Cause I’d rather ride on my motorcycle
And I don’t want to die
I just want to ride on my motorcy. . .
Cle
I gotta be cool, relax, get hip
And get on my track’s
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motorbike
Until I’m ready
Crazy little thing called love
You can’t run from love
There’s just no place in this world to hide…
You can’t run from love
I’ve tried
Help, I’m steppin’ into the twilight zone
Place is a madhouse, feels like being alone
My beacon’s been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go now that I’ve gone too far?
You’re such an inspiration for the ways
That I’ll never ever choose to be
Revvin’ up your engine
Listen to her howlin’ roar
Metal under tension
Beggin’ you to touch and go
Highway to the danger zone
Ride into the danger zone
Get your motor running
Head out on the highway
Looking for adventure
And whatever comes our way…
Pickin’ up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream,
I wonder how the old folks are tonight.
Her name was Ann and I’ll be damned if I recall her face,
She left me not knowin’ what to do.
Carefree highway, let me slip away on you,
Carefree highway, you seen better days–
The mornin’ after blues, from my head down to my shoes,
Carefree highway, let me slip away, slip away on you.
Slip slidin’ away
Slip slidin’ away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you’re slip slidin’ away
I know a man
He came from my home town
He wore his passion for his woman
Like a thorny crown
He said Delores
I live in fear
My love for you’s so overpowering
I’m afraid that I will disappear
Slip slidin’ away
Slip slidin’ away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you’re slip slidin’ away
