- Verse 1:
- Three thirty in the morning, not a soul in sight
- The city's looking like a ghost town on a moonless summer night
- Mrs. Skilton's in her house, all alone in her chair
- Her elbows sag like a pendulum, moving without a care
- Chorus:
- And her elbows swing, like a pendulum do
- They're huge and they're sagging, but they're still in tune
- And the thunder rolls, and her elbows swing
- Yeah, her elbows swing
- Verse 2:
- Every light is out, except for the lamp by her side
- She stares blankly at the walls, lost in thought and time
- The world outside is restless, but her elbows are at peace
- Swinging back and forth, like a rhythmic masterpiece
- Chorus:
- And her elbows swing, like a pendulum do
- They're huge and they're sagging, but they're still in tune
- And the thunder rolls, and her elbows swing
- Yeah, her elbows swing
- Bridge:
- She remembers the days when her elbows were young
- Taut and firm, like a song that's just begun
- But now they're old, like a book that's been read
- Sagging with the weight of life, but still moving ahead
- Chorus:
- And her elbows swing, like a pendulum do
- They're huge and they're sagging, but they're still in tune
- And the thunder rolls, and her elbows swing
- Yeah, her elbows swing
- Outro:
- The thunder fades, and the night grows still
- Mrs. Skilton's elbows keep swinging, like they always will
- A rhythmic reminder, of a life that's been lived
- Of highs and lows, of love and loss, of all that she's been given.
