LYRICS
Vs. 1 All the pretty girls in all their patchwork skirts / Laughing and loving and feeling what it’s worth / The glow of the night above us as we settle into sound / Just spinning round and round and / You’d think we’d found our way tonight / The geometric slide, the geometric slide /

Vs. 2 And all the unattached are sitting in a line / Like faces on a canvas, the kind with moving eyes / Just spinning round and round and round and / You’d think that they’re too scared to try / The geometric slide, the geometric slide /

Vs. 3 And all the ceiling fans, they shiver and they glide / Your chin is in your hands and you’re looking past the skylight / Just spinning round and round and round and / You’d think that maybe you were high / On the geometric slide, the geometric slide /

Vs. 4 All the bows and ribbons hung up with golden twine / The air is soft and viscous, and I’m sinking into twilight / Just spinning round and round and round and / You’d think that I was born to fly / The geometric slide, the geometric slide /

Vs. 5 Hold on to me, baby, build a web around me/ It’s all just light and color now, in everything surrounding / When we hold on to each other, I feel our hearts colliding / A thousand tiny pieces, it’s all shiny and inviting / Shooting through the air, in our shoes and in our hair / Spinning round and round and round 3x / I think we’ll go on until we die / The geometric slide
