Lyrics The Proclaimers

The Proclaimers

Spinning Around In The Air

Let me give praise to your sparkling eyes

And your coloured hair.

Let me spend ages on poetic phrases

To show I care.

Let me go grazing on dappled green pastures

Where you're the mare.

Let me rephrase that

I think there's a better line there,

Spinning around in the air.

Let me donate something to a kid's charity

Of your choice.

For you I would willingly be a worse traitor

Than William Joyce.

If I could sing I would sing you a song

In Sam Cooke's voice.

Let me rephrase that

I think there's a better line there,

Spinning around in the air.

Are you happy now?

Say yeah, yeah, yeah.

Are you really happy now?

Say yeah, yeah, yeah.

Tell me where it hurts.

It hurts there and there and there.

Adverbs and nouns

Juicy and round

Spinning around in the air.

Are you happy now?

Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Are you really happy now?

Say yeah, yeah, yeah.

Tell me where it hurts.

It hurts there and there and there.

Adverbs and nouns

Juicy and round

Spinning around in the air.

Madam Onassis took Ari's old glasses

And put them on.

She said "I see ships" and she started to quip

About old Boston.

I climbed over her just to climb upon you,

What did I do wrong?

Let me rephrase that

I think there's a better line there,

Spinning around in the air.
