Slip Away

[Verse 1]

Oogie waits for just another day

Drags his bones to see the Yankees play

Bones Boy talks and flickers gray

Oh, they slip away

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

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

Sailing over Coney Island

Twinkle twinkle, Uncle Floyd

We were dumb, but you were fun, boy

How I wonder where you are

[Verse 3]

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

Oh, what'sa matter with you?

C'mon, let's go slip away

[Chorus]

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

Sailing over Coney Island

Twinkle twinkle, Uncle Floyd

We were dumb, but you were fun, boy

How I wonder where you are

[Outro]

Sailing
