I'm swept away
Yes, I'm off the ground flying
Swept away
Yesterday's all but goneLike a hurricane
You are tossing me 'round
And I'm swept away
And today you're the oneFor society
Shimmy, shimmy, shimmy
And you go, oh, no
For propriety
Shimmy, shimmy, shimmy
And you go, no, noBut now I'm swept away
Yes, I'm past the sound barrier
Swept away
Yesterday's all but doneLike a Novocain shooting
Up through my arms faster
Swept away
And today you're the oneFor society
Shimmy, shimmy, shimmy
And you go, oh, no
For propriety
Shimmy, shimmy, shimmy
And you go, no, noBut now I'm swept away
Yes, I'm past the sound barrier
Swept away
Yesterday's all but doneLike election day you are
Robbing me blind mister
Swept away
And today you're the one
