Lyrics
Skipalong
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.
So tired of feeling blue
Such a heavy weight on you
So shake it off
And make your way
To somewhere different
To somewhere different
Oh, no
Now you're leaving me
Oh, what will you do?
All alone
In the big bad world
But I'm not worried, no
'Cause you're
Gonna skip along
Quite merrily baby
You're gonna revel
In hating
What's going on
And you're
Like a sugar bomb
And no harm will come
No harm will come
If you just skip along
Acting oblivious
Comes natural to us
Keep smiling knowing
All the while the world
Will fall apart
The world
Will fall apart
Wouldn't it be lovely
To be home, home
Safe and sound
With no one round
To bring us down
But that's so far away
