Olly Olly Oxen Free Songtext

von Gregory and the Hawk

Dear day we met,
I just made up my bed, and now
I'm kneeling by it.
Dear last July,
You once were heavy,
But now I lift you
Over my head like a feather.

It all depends
On whether you're carried away,
Or whether I pray for something
And hold on to today

I've never been one for chasing
Stars in the starry night
It just seems too easy
Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be
Fine when you want me
Yeah, for the last time,
Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be,
Fine when I'm asleep,
Yeah, for the last time

Dear consequence,
Could I shake your hand?
'Cause man, you really got me this time.
Oh, nights I've lost,
Raising pots, tumbling towards the Isle of Tigers

It all depends
On whether I'm carried away
Or whether I stand for something
And stick it to today

I never been one for grasping straws
Or feeling life
It just makes me queasy.
Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be,
Fine when you want me,
Yeah, for the last time.
Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be,
Fine when I'm asleep,
Yeah, for the last time.

Make my head spin again,
Throw me over the edge.
It's all in his kiss again,
Just like momma said.

Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be
Fine when you want me,
Yeah, for the last time.
Gonna be, gonna be, gonna be
Fine when I'm asleep,
Yeah, for the last time.
