Let me put it this way doll 
And I know it's getting late 
I can tell from the planes of your face 
That you're from out of state 
But here in the willows now here's the deal 
Tomorrow's for squares, tonight's for real 

Drop me off in Groovetime 
Do you hear the slang of ages 
Show me how it's done 

Now did you say you were from the Netherlands 
Or was that "Netherworld"? 
If you grew up in Amsterdam 
Then I'm the Duke of Earl 
These tabs look iffy, you say they're good 
Let's roll with the homeys - knock on wood 

Drop me off in Groovetime 
Soothe me with the Slang of Ages 
Show me where I turn 

Are you all part of the Dreaming 
Or the end of my life so far? 
Or something half way in between 
You oughta know 
Hey, where'd she go? 

Damn, she skipped dimensions 
Was it something that I said? 
Or something I was thinking 
When she opened up my head? 
Let me make it right baby, never mind how 
There's a crazy little place I know called "Be There Now" 

Drop me off in Groovetime 
Do you hear the slang of ages 
Show me how it's done 
Drop me off in Groovetime 
Soothe me with the slang of ages 
This is where I turn
