Slung-lo - Erin McKeown

I was slung-lo and

So gung-ho

For anything to get me to start

I had my rock

I had my roll

But I couldn't find my spark



A flip of the hi-fi

A glimpse of the good life

And the clouds began to fade

I'm turning this B-side

Around to a de-light

Blue skies are here to stay



"She was so down, look at her now

She's never been so high!

Everyone knows, give it some time

The clouds'll clear the sky!"



Light the radio

Til it explodes

I'm dancin' til I drop

One small step

First right then left

I'm never gonna stop



"She was so down, look at her now

She's dancin' til she drops!

Everyone knows, give it some time

You'll find what you have lost!"



It is my style to take awhile

To put the feeling down to page

I get around to making sound

When the fancy meets the phrase!



"She was so down, look at her now

She's never been so high!

Everyone knows, give it some time

The clouds'll clear the sky!"



I'm gonna burst

Right out of this world

And I won't do it alone

A kick to the heart

A lift for the charts

One listen and we'll be gone

And then who cares?

We're debonair

And we're dancin' our way back home



"She was so down, look at her now

She's never been so high!

Everyone knows, give it some time

The clouds'll clear the sky!"
