Ping Pong (Unreleased LP version) - Stereolab
Written by：Tim Gane
It's alright 'cos the historical
Pattern has shown
How the economical
Cycle tends to revolve
In a round of decades three
Stages stand out in a loop
A slump and war then peel back to
Square one and back for more
Bigger slump
And bigger wars and a smaller recovery
Huger slump
And greater wars and a shallower recovery
You see the recovery
Always comes round again
There's nothing to worry for
Things will look
After
Themselves
It's alright recovery
Always comes round again
There's nothing to worry if things
Can only get better
There's only millions that
Lose their jobs and homes and sometimes accents
There's only millions that die in their bloody wars
It's alright
It's only their lives
And the lives of their next of kin that they are losing
It's only their lives
And the lives of their next of kin that they are losing
It's alright 'cos the historical
Pattern has shown
How the economical
Cycle tends to revolve
In a round of decades three
Stages stand out in a loop
A slump
And war then peel back to square one and back for more
Bigger slump
And bigger wars and a smaller recovery
Huger slump
And greater wars and a shallower recovery
Don't worry
Be happy
Things will get better naturally
Don't worry
Shut up
Sit down
Go with it and be happy
Dum dum dum de dum
Dum de duh de duh de dum dum dum ah ah
Dum dum dum de dum
Dum de duh de duh de dum dum dum ah ah
