Lyrics: You've got a sad face You don't show it And you're smiling it, too Even in deep, deep outer space There's something for you
I'm Sir Rockaby And rockin' I am [x2]
The world is a rock that's Spinning so fast It'll give you jim-jams I'm just a real love diplomat Won't give you no flim-flams
I'm Sir Rockaby And rockin' I am [x2]
How many stars girl Can you both count And then classify? I'm standing here in this big swirl Singing this lullaby
I'm Sir Rockaby And rockin' I am [x3]
Quotes: "That's a pretty mellow song. Although, (I and my co-producer have had this discussion a couple of times) that even though it's the mellowest song (so to speak) on the record, in a way, we feel it's the most rockin' (not any pun intended by the title), but in a way it's sort of,.....it's the most..i don't know what the right word is. I wanna say macho, but that's not really the right word either. It's the most something. It's the most rockin' number for us on a much higher lever, on a more base level, yes, it's mellow, but on a higher level..uh.....you know, whatever that's called, it's rockin'. I really wanted Ray Davies to write the lyrics to that song. I had had a connection to his former manager, and I sent him the song without lyrics, and I never heard back form him, which is fine." - Frank Black, Glr Radio interview, May 18, 1994
