Clap, clap Sally

Clap, clap Sally

Clap, clap Sally



She took a ride on another train

She couldnt cry cuz her face was bleeding

She booked a ticket in another name.

She never thought it would be so easy



Shes never ever been together,

but shes never meant to fall apart,

It hurts her either way.



Coulda put em back together,

all the pieces of a broken heart.

It hurts you anyway.



When you dont know be shouldnt be

Where the life should of been



Sally, dont let the rain get you down,

Look out the window

Somethings coming in

thats gonna chase away your sorrow.



Dont let the rain get you down

look out the window

Gotta shine again like the world around you



Sally,

who turned on you

Made you black eyed

Sally blue

Sally who turned on you

Made you blacked eyed

Sally!



She took a ride on another train

She couldnt cry cuz her face was bleeding

She booked a ticket in another name

She never thought it would be so easy



Shes never ever been together,

but shes never meant to fall apart,

It hurts her either way.



Coulda put em back together,

all the pieces of a broken heart.

It hurts you anyway.



The pleasures could of been

And the blue is that shes easy and I love you so



Sally, dont let the rain get you down.

Look out the window,

somethings comming in.

thats gonna chase away your sorrow.



Sally, dont let the rain get you down.

Look out the window,

somethings comming in.

Gotta Shine again, like the world around you.



I could love you tomorrow

And see that you dont know my love at all



Dont let the rain get you down

Look out the window

Somethings coming in

Thats gonna chase away the sorrow

Dont let the rain

Get you down, look out the window

Gotta shine again

Like the world around you



Sally,who turned on you

Made you black eyed, Sally blue?

Sally who turned on you

Made you black eyed, Sally



Ohh...

Clap, clap Sally

Sally - Mika

Mika's 'Sally' stands as a poignant song in his discography, reflecting the introspective and often melancholic tone characteristic of his work. The track explores themes of longing and emotional vulnerability, delivered through a blend of electronic production and acoustic elements that define his musical style. Released during a period where Mika frequently examined personal relationships and societal expectations, the song captures a specific mood that resonates with listeners seeking depth in pop music. While not tied to a specific major album release in this context, it aligns with the broader narrative found in his earlier works, such as 'The Boy Who Knew Too Much,' where he delved into complex character studies and romantic dilemmas. The recording showcases his ability to merge indie sensibilities with mainstream appeal, creating a sound that remains distinct within the electronic pop genre.
