Ping Pong Lyrics

Artist: Stereolab
Album: Mars Audiac Quintet

it's alright 'cos the historical pattern has shown
how the economical cycle tends to revolve
in a round of decades three stages stand out in a loop
a slump and war then peel back to square one and back for more

bigger slump and bigger wars and a smaller recovery
huger slump and greater wars and a shallower recovery

you see the recovery always comes 'round again
there's nothing to worry for things will look after themselves
it's alright recovery always comes 'round again
there's nothing to worry if things can only get better

there's only millions that lose their jobs and homes and sometimes accents
there's only millions that die in their bloody wars, it's alright

it's only their lives and the lives of their next of kin that they are losing
it's only their lives and the lives of their next of kin that they are losing

it's alright 'cos the historical pattern has shown
how the economical cycle tends to revolve
in a round of decades three stages stand out in a loop
a slump and war then peel back to square one and back for more

bigger slump and bigger wars and a smaller recovery
huger slump and greater wars and a shallower recovery

don't worry be happy things will get better naturally
don't worry shut up sit down go with it and be happy

dum, dum, dum, de dum dum, de duh de duh de dum dum dum... ah ah
dum, dum, dum, de dum dum, de duh de duh de dum dum dum... ah ah

by stoned and so entertained on 1/19/2009 5:44am what's funniest about it to me is that, earlier this afternoon, i said, "it's just such a happy song! i'm not altogether clear what they're saying, but i'm like that with music" which is true. i listen to music for years without bothering to seek out the actual lyrics. "really, they could be talking about the end of the world or something, but it's put to a happy beat and i can make out 'don't worry - be happy, things will get better naturally'." oh thank you interwebs. i'm going to go sleep in my car now.
