Lyrics to Clippity Clop

Lyrics to Clippity Clop
[- 100 Monkeys; Grape]

Baby girl, you walk so slow you,
got grass growing at your heels,
baby girl.

Baby girl, when you walk so slow
it seems to me there's no place you're
heading to.

Me I'm on a train that hits the tracks,
it makes a sound that goes:
clicky clack click-a-dickity-clack click-a-dickity clack click-a-dickity clack
as I head quickly in the wrong direction
[
direction, direction]

All the stupid things I've ever done,
never jumped from the train,
oh no.
When you're in the air, you just don't care.
Nothing's in your mind.

Then you hit the ground, it makes a sound,
your body goes:
flippity-flop, flip-a-dippity flop,
flip-a-dippity flop, flip-a-dippity flop

Then you're down and you're stuck in place.
[
place. place.]

-musical interlude-
"Get down brother."
"All right!"

I open up my eyes and a blurry smile comes into view;
oh my god, it's you.
I feel a hand run up my thigh,
the other grabs my shirt,
oh my god, it worked.

Then you take my wallet and you run away.
Me, my broken heart it makes a sound,
it goes:
pitter pitter pat, pitter pitter pat pat, pitter pitter pat pat, pitter pitter pat pat.

How could I have been such a silly fool?
[
fool. fool.]

end.
