I could never understand the wind at all, was like a ball of love
I could never, never see the cosmic sea, was like a bumblebee

And when I'm sad, I slide

I have never, never kissed a car before, it's like a door
I have always, always grown my own before, all schools are strange

And when I'm sad, I slide
Oh, slide

Doot, doot, doot, doot, do, do, do, do, do, do-do
Doot-do, do, do-do, do, do, do
Doot, doot, doot, doot, do, do, do, do, do, do-do
Doot-do, do, do-do, do, do, do

And when I'm sad, I slide

I have never, never nailed a nose before, that's how the garden grows
I could never understand the wind at all, was like a ball of love

And when I'm sad, I slide

Oh, watch now, I'm gonna slide
