Slip Away

Lyrics

Oogie waits for just another day
 
 Drags his bones to see the Yankees play
 Bones Boy talks and flickers gray
 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
 ♪
 Sailing over Coney Island
 ♪
 Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd
 ♪
 We were dumb but you were fun, boy
 ♪
 How I wonder where you are
 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
 ♪
 What'sa matter with you
 C'mon, let's go
 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
 ♪
 Sailing over Coney Island
 ♪
 Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd
 ♪
 We were dumb but you were fun, boy
 
 How I wonder where you are
