lyrics

GLIDE
C’mon in let the games begin cuz now you’re off the clock.
You can push your pawn & knight all day but don’t block. No don’t block.
Cuz if Daddy’s got the toys and your mom brings the noise it makes all you babies rock.
Some grind their boards from the bottom up, some of them catch a wave on top.

While Gliding… thru the slime. Lather, rinse, repeat & you will find.
There’s a forward bubble motion, that just won’t be ignored. Use your words or body language of your own accord.

I seen you grab up your instrument, your stingy-brim trilby hat.
Tuck in your tails, swing on your trapeze but then it’s my turn at bat.
Eyes on the pitcher’s mound and the bases are loaded. The stands are packed.
Pressure’s on to the denoument. Homerun! Cheers & fade to black.

While you’re gliding thru the slime. Lather, rinse, repeat & you will find.
There’s a forward bubble motion, that just won’t be ignored.
Use your words & holla at me if you want some more….
