Bought the album, here's the real lyrics from the handbook.
Slow. Not the meter of today
but I'm not singing you know anyway
this slow slow tune
You. Somewhere in the future listening
I hope the present for you's glistening
With notes that ring so true
This slow slow tune
Slow. Daddy's playing just for you
The tempo's right, I'm in a mellow mood
This slow slow tune
Gotta radiate the gold (x2)
Gotta radiate the gold. Ooh. oh oh
True. Daddy's singin just for you
But do you hear him baby anymore?
Now that you've outgrown- this slow slow tune
Grown with a meter all your own
You decide the pace you set the tone
The future now you own!
The slow slow tune
Slow slow tune
@Mac3030 Definitely. I was already listening to the song when I came to this website. I was at the part where Jim says, "Grown, with a meter all your own." I looked at the lyrics to find that line and I didn't see it. It should be changed. I've always remembered that line because it's so original. What a great idea! To use meter, or tempo, as an analogy for age and the independence that comes and goes with it. Genius!
