Nellie McKay Lyrics

"Swept Away" lyrics



I'm swept away
Yes I'm off the ground flying
Swept away
Yesterday's all but gone
Like a hurricane
You are tossing me 'round
Swept away
And today you're the one

For society
Shimmy shimmy shimmy
And you go, oh no
For propriety
Shimmy shimmy shimmy
And you go no no

But now I'm swept away
Yes I'm past the sound barrier
Swept away
Yesterday's all but done
Like a novocain shootin'
Up through my arms faster
Swept away
And today you're the one

For society
Shimmy shimmy shimmy
And you go, oh no
For propriety
Shimmy shimmy shimmy
And you go no no

But now I'm swept away
Yes I'm past the sound barrier
Swept Away
Yesterday's all but done
Like election day you are
Robbing me blind mister
Just-a swept away
And today you're the one
