Texty: The Roches. The Largest Elizabeth in the World.

Didn't you ever feel like the largest Elizabeth in the world?
Usually at a time when the boy is oblivious to the girl
I read in the paper the other day
This has been happening to everybody more and more

The scientists are on the case
But they still haven't figured out
What it is that it is happening for

Slow down, slow down, slow down

Wouldn't you like to feel like yourself
After suffering so many years, years, years?
If you were asked to the party by somebody else
You wouldn't be sitting home in tears

Or maybe you're one of those interesting people
Who don't go outside but they get their best work done
By keeping themselves in the house off the street
And away from the scene when it's time for the rest to have fun

Slow down, slow down, slow down
Come on, slow down, slow down

They say the world's over
Goodbye, see you next time, next time
You don't have to go

What if the after effect of the terrible bomb
Is unusual beyond belief?
Wouldn't you rather the whole population
Had listened to somebody like the old Indian chief?

Turn it around like a rig
And go back to that simple truck stop
On the way to the unfortunate world
You might be the largest Elizabeth
But Elizabeth is still a good name to have if you're a girl

Slow down, come on, slow down
Slow down, slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down, slow down
