Big Swing Face
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Your cymbal crashing, your teeth gnashing
You′re in your element
We love to see you, we′d love to be you
You′re in your elephant
Costume, do whatever you′ve got to do
To make the people scream for you
We love you when you′ve got your
Big Swing Face
You′re rolling eyes way out in space
Looks like a beautiful beautiful place
You′ve got your Big Swing Face
You′re in the arena, you bow to the crowd
But you′d better look down
Some people laughing, it′s easy to laugh
When your zipper′s down
Down, fly′s open
I know you′re the great one
You′re so hilarious, you′re leaving us in the dust
Big Swing Face
You′re rolling eyes way out in space
Looks like a beautiful beautiful place
You′ve got your Big Swing Face
You′re in the arena, you bow to the crowd
But you′d better look down
Some people laughing, it′s easy to laugh
When your zipper′s down
Down, fly′s open
I know you′re the great one
You′re so hilarious, you′re leaving us in the dust
In your costume foolery
Beads, sandals and jewelry
You′re a funny guy
We′ll never wonder why
We love it when you′ve got your
Big Swing Face
You′re rolling eyes way out in space
Looks like a beautiful beautiful place
You′ve got your Big Swing Face
You′re in the arena, you bow to the crowd
But you′d better look down
Some people laughing, it′s easy to laugh
When your zipper′s down
Down, fly′s open
I know you′re the great one
You′re so hilarious, you′re leaving us in the dust
