Once in the spring of my twenty-fourth year
I had nothing to say With a dangling promise, a terrible past I threw all the words away We were born to hum You were the last in my twenty-fourth year To make a demand of my voice I tickled your ear and I laughed in your face I gave you my choice We were born to hum We were born to hum Hum Hum So as a gradual running, a kind of relief Settles on my face Once in a while I complain to myself Nothing gets done Nothing's in place I, I would rather hum I, I would rather hum Hum Hum Hum |

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 delight 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 a while 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 |
