The Flip Side by Andy Karl and Margo Seibert Lyrics
[Rocky, spoken]
Gimme ten minutes!
[Watchman, spoken]:
Ten minutes for ten dollars!
[Rocky, spoken]:
Yeah, okay
Yo, I'll take these plates!
And yo! How 'bout listenin' to some ice-skating music?
[Watchman, spoken]
Right. You got ten minutes!
[Rocky]
You wanna skate? I'm gonna watch ya'
If you start to fall, ya' know, I gotcha
You do the spins, I'll do the walkin'
And if you get shy, I don't mind talking
Maybe it's early to call this a date
Then again maybe it's never too late
'Cause I look at you and see
The flip side of me
[Watchman, spoken]
Eight and a half minutes!
[Rocky]
You got the brains
[Adrian, spoken]
'Guess so
[Rocky]
I got the body
[Adrian, spoken]
I know
[Rocky]
Add one and one
That ain't too shoddy
Oh, I'm bad at jokes
[Adrian]
Yes
[Rocky]
Hope you don't mind it
'Cause makin' ya' smile is what's behind it
Me with the body, and you with the brains
Put 'em together, it sorta explains why I look at you and see
The flip side of me
[Watchman, spoken]
You got seven minutes!
[Rocky]
Yo, he keeps good time
Guess that's why they call him a "watchman." Boom!
Skating along like we ain't got a care
Hope that you like it a bit
Your little hand in my mitten
Funny how people can fit
[Watchman, spoken]
You got four minutes!
[Rocky, spoken]
Yo, what happened to six and five?
[Watchman, spoken]
Ya' used 'em up askin' me what happened to 'em
[Rocky]
La-da, da-da, da-da-da
Life's glidin' past
[Adrian]
Life's gliding past
[Rocky]
Sorta like skatin'
Some start off fast
[Adrian]
Some stand there waiting
[Rocky]
One person slips
[Adrian]
One holds on tighter
A girl who can't skate
[Rocky]
A third grade fighter
What we get giving is God's game of craps [?]
But life is worth living
With someone to fill in the gaps
And I think you just might be...
[Watchman, spoken]
Three!
[Rocky]
I think you just might be
[Watchman, spoken]
Two!
[Rocky and Adrian]
I think you just might be
The flip side of me
[Watchman, spoken]
One!
Gimme ten minutes!
[Watchman, spoken]:
Ten minutes for ten dollars!
[Rocky, spoken]:
