It was a October morning
Near the carousel
I met a light young beauty
And we talked there for a spell
We walked up by the Great Lawn
And my heart began to sing
A madman on a bench screams out
Hold on to that slinky thing
Hold on to that slinky thing
We went to a party
Everybody stood around
Thinking, hey, what's she doing
With a burned-out hippie clown
Young dudes were grinning
I can't say it didn't stink
Some punk says, Pops, you better
Hold on to that slinky thing
Hold on to that slinky thing
More light, more light, more light, more light, more light, more light
More light, more light, more light, more light, more light, more light
Today we were strolling
By the reptile cage
I'm thinking does she needs somebody
Who's closer to her own age
I try not to worry
What tomorrow may bring
I'm just gonna do my best to
Hold on to that slinky thing
Hold on to that slinky thing
More light, more light, more light, more light, more light, more light
More light, more light, more light, more light, more light, more light
Today we were strolling
By the reptile cage
I'm thinking does she needs somebody
Who's closer to her own age
I try not to worry
What tomorrow may bring
I'm just gonna do my best to
Hold on to that slinky thing
Hold on to that slinky thing
She smile
There's a sun in my sky
She laugh
That's my power supply
She stay with me
I know heaven is right here on earth
She go
I cry
She smile
There's a sun in my sky
She laugh
That's my power supply
She stay with me
I know heaven is right here on earth
She go
I cry
