You Am I - TOP OF THE MORN' & SLIP OF THE DAY lyrics

I shuffle 'round the Earth like a ping pong

To find something just to hang my hat on

And somewhere just to let my pants get dry

Heard a trucker on a pay phone gas mall

sort his deal out with a twent five cent call

Shooting through before his see-through coffee went cold

And it sure did seem a good deal to me

But my head's too soaked in Brilliantine

So just take me out, alright!

I've brushed over stations and channels

and combed the town corduroy and flannel

Only know who you are when you move and who you're with when you're alone

That's all I know

And it sure did seem a good deal to me

But my head's too soaked in Brilliantine

So just take me out, alright!

And top of the morn and slip of the day

Just don't sleep good since I been away

So here's to you, alright!

I think I've figured out a way to get by

I'll leave your bran sitting on a shelf

I think I figured out a cracking good way to get by

So kick me out, I'm going west, bye bye

And it sure did seem a good deal to me

But my head's too soaked in Brilliantine

So just take me out, alright!

And top of the morn and slip of the day

Just don't sleep good since I been away

So here's to you, alright!

Walk stupid like an expectant dad

waiting for your hand like I'm waiting for skylab

So kick me out, I'm going west, alright
