Slip Away [Bowie]

Oogie waits for just another day
Drags his bones to see the Yankees play
Bones Boy talks and flickers grey
Oh, they slip away

Once a time, they nearly might have been
Bones and Oogie on a silver screen
No one knew what they could do except for me and you
They slip away

They slip away

Don't forget to keep your head warm
Twinkle, twinkle, Uncle Floyd
Watching all the world and war-torn
How I wonder where you are
Whoa, oh, oh

Sailing over Coney Island 
Twinkle, twinkle, Uncle Floyd 
We were dumb, but you were fun, boy 
How I wonder where you are
Oh, oh, oh

Oogie knew there's never ever time 
Some of us will always stay behind 
Down in space, it's always 1982 
The joke we always knew 

Oh, oh, oh
What's the matter with you?
Come on, let's go
Slip away, oh, oh, ho

Don't forget to keep your head warm 
Twinkle, twinkle, Uncle Floyd 
Watching all the world and war-torn 
How I wonder where you are
Oh, oh, oh

Sailing over Coney Island 
Twinkle, twinkle, Uncle Floyd 
We were dumb, but you were fun, boy 
How I wonder where you are
Oh, oh, oh
