Sources say this hit was found lying by a storm drain on a cracked Maxwell type I cassette. Slick has undertaken the task of restoring the "Lost Song" to its original form.
lyrics
I lost my song
It fell out in the street
I left it in the gutter
where it belongs
Who'd even care
it's just an amalgamation
of words
strung together.
Lost my song
Lost my head
Lost any sense that I'd feel anything but dread.
Then I lost my pen
there goes my thoughts
everything's going backwards
and it feels so wrong
I stole my song
I found it in the street
you couldn't tell the difference if you didn't know
Now I see
what everyone means
I think I'll try
Ran away from the home I know
Tried to say the words as they came to me
Impressionistic ways to spray my spit
I try to find what I lost
It's not gone.
