Music and lyrics by Kimon Kirk and Sarah Borges
(Dos Kay Music, BMI; James and Jean Music, ASCAP)

lyrics

A little bit slow on the uptake, a little too quick on the jive
I’d tell you it was time for a remake
But I wouldn’t wanna give the wrong vibe
Though I had your number once, you still find a way to keep me guessing

It’s a risk you were gonna be taking, you knew you had to give it a try
But it’s a failure long in the making, I should’ve known you were bouncing too high
Now you’re barely hanging on, you can’t even see to reach the ceiling

Trampoline, put your feet back on the ground
Trampoline, first you’re up and then you’re down
Trampoline, Trampoline

You used to have the moves of a dancer, a Nereid with glittering wings
But now you can’t remember the answer when they ask you if your bird still swings
All that’s left for you to do is balance on the edges of your tiptoes

Trampoline, put your feet back on the ground
Trampoline, first you’re up and then you’re down
Trampoline, Trampoline

Seconds flash and arms untangle, searching for a different angle
Flailing as you hurtle toward the sun
