Penduli Pendulum
Bobbie Gentry
Penduli pendulum
Swing around, beat the drum
In July, I'll deny
The illusion
I'll be gone, beat the drum
There I go, here I come
And goodbye means good try
No conclusion
Pendulum
Like perfect rhyme
Always in predicted time
Penduli when will I learn?
Departure means a sure return
Slice the pie, leave a crumb
What have I now become?
When the lie is just some
Sad inducement
Stifled cry will become
Just a sigh, so hum-drum
When goodbye serves as my
One amusement
Penduli pendulum
Swing around, beat the drum
In July, I'll deny
The illusion
