Electric Swing Interlude
I met a girl on a subway train with her headphones on
She was standing in the middle with platform shoes a red skirt and a black leather jacket
It was crowded
People around her wore long faces, suitcases, and black shoelaces
She, well she had her eyes closed
Her aura was purple yellow matching her cosmic stardust t-shirt
Her white Allstars they were worn in
They tapped a rhythm unknown to the zombie commuters
I walked up to her because
I needed to know
She acknowledged my being
by removing one headphone dj style
And then I said hey
What are those cheers coming from your ears
As She looked
She paused
And said here's the thing
All the people all around the world
Should come together where the hearts don't hurt
Yo it don't matter what your spirit is
We can dance like Egyptians on the pyramids
Put a flagpole on a mountain top why don't you
Celebrate what you got or not why won't you
Stop thinking and get out of your head
I got the remedy
Feel that?
It makes you dance
It makes you sing
Transcends the ordinary things
Up in the igloos
All the way
Down to Beijing
Electric swing
Everybody step into the light
Let's give a celebrational high five
Kick off ya shoes feel the earthly grooves
And get indigenous and tripping like a didgeridoo
Sing a little like the bird and the bees why don't you
Grab somebody in a friendlier squeeze
Why won't you
Stop thinking and get out of your head
I got the remedy
Feel that?
It makes you dance
It makes you sing
Transcends the ordinary things
Up in the igloos
All the way
Down to Beijing
Electric swing
Attention all the radio squeakers
The movements coming thru your speakers
Black your telly telly bunkum box
Close your Mac tops turn the message up
Get inside a Goldkimono trip
Now break it down as if the cd skipped
It goes
Electric swing
