Slip Away Lyrics by David Bowie

Slip Away Lyrics

    Oogie waits for just another day
    Drags his bones
    to see the Yankees play
    Bones Boy talks and flickers gray
    Oh, they slip away

    Once a time
    they nearly might have been
    Bones and Oogie on a silver screen
    No one knew what they could do
    Except for me and you
    They slip away
    They slip away

    Don't forget
    to keep your head warm
    Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd
    Watching all the world
    and war torn
    How I wonder where you are
    Oo-o
    Sailing over
    Coney Island
    Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd
    We were dumb
    but you were fun, boy
    How I wonder where you are
    Oo-o

    Oogie knew there's never ever time
    Some of us will always stay behind
    Down in space it's always 1982
    The joke we always knew
    Oo-oo
    What'sa matter with you
    C'mon, let's go
    Slip away
    Oo-o

    Don't forget
    to keep your head warm
    Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd
    Watching all the world
    and war torn
    How I wonder where you are
    Oo-o
    Sailing over
    Coney Island
    Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd
    We were dumb
    but you were fun, boy
    How I wonder where you are
    Oo-o
    Sailing
