[Intro]       [Verse 1] I wanna shake like La Guardia Magic mouth in the sun Train ride to the courtyard Before you can run Down at the end of Lonely Street Where no one takes a walk Someone lyin’ at your feet And someone’s gettin’ off [Chorus] Just gimme some slack yeah Just gimme some slack Just gimme slack That’s all I want is slack [Verse 2] The seven floors of walkup The odor musted cracks And the peeping keyhole introverts With the monkeys on their backs And the rooftops strung with fräuleins The pastel pinned up sails The eighteen color roses Against your face so pale [Chorus] A just gimme some slack that’s right Uh gimme some slack Gimme slack ooh yeah All I want is slack [Verse 3] I wanna float like Euripides All visions intact I’m alright with Fellini fiends A trippin’ over the track Down at the end of L-onely Street Where no one takes a chance Someone’s in the cheap light Someone wants to dance [Chorus] Just gimme some slack that’s right All I want is slack Oh gimme slack All I want is slack [Outro] Gimme slack Slack Slack Sssslack Slack (unintelligible) slack
