I'm swept away
Yes, I'm off the ground flyin'
Swept away
Yesterday's all but gone
Like a hurricane
You are tossin' me 'round
Find I'm 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 novocaine
Shootin' up through my arm 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 robbin' me blind, mister
Swept away
And today you're the one
Yes, I'm off the ground flyin'
Swept away
Yesterday's all but gone
Like a hurricane
You are tossin' me 'round
Find I'm 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 novocaine
Shootin' up through my arm 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 robbin' me blind, mister
Swept away
And today you're the one
