Squirrel Nut Zippers - Got My Own Thing Now текст песни

When I was a lad, I was a little bit shy.

Something came along and caught my eye.

When I heard the jazz band strike up,

I swear, I had my mind made up.

Now Im getting older

Everything is in full swing.

Now Im getting bolder

Man, Ive got to do that thing.

I used to walk along with the rest

Now Ive got something all my own

Now youve got a little something new.

Broke away, somehow.

Thats why Im swinging it

Ive got my own thing now!

Children put away your toys

All your little childrens games.

Let the jazz band make some noise

Step up ladies and watch out boys.

mirror on the wall,

Whos the hot band in the hall?

Let everybody sing

Get on out there and do your thing.
