Clap, clap Sally
Clap, clap Sally
She took a ride on another train
She couldn't cry cuz her face was bleeding
She booked a ticket in another name.
She never thought it would be so easy
She's never ever been together,
but she's 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 don't know be shouldn't be
Where the life should of been
Sally, don't let the rain get you down,
Look out the window
Something's coming in
that's gonna chase away your sorrow.
Don't 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 couldn't cry cuz her face was bleeding
She booked a ticket in another name
She never thought it would be so easy
She's never ever been together,
but she's 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 she's easy and I love you so
Sally, don't let the rain get you down.
Look out the window,
something's comming in.
that's gonna chase away your sorrow.
Sally, don't let the rain get you down.
Look out the window,
something's comming in.
Gotta Shine again, like the world around you.
I could love you tomorrow
And see that you don't know my love at all
Don't let the rain get you down
Look out the window
Somethings coming in
That's gonna chase away the sorrow
Don't 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
Clap, clap Sally
Clap, clap Sally
The lyrics of Mika’s song “Sally” tell the story of a girl who takes a ride on another train to escape from something that has hurt her - it is unclear what this is specifically. Although she has never been together, she doesn’t want to fall apart, but she thinks it hurts either way. Sally seems to be someone who has had her heart broken and has been betrayed by someone. Her face is bleeding, suggesting that she has been physically hurt as well. The chorus advises Sally not to let the rain get her down and to look out the window because something is coming to chase away her sorrow. The song ends with Sally being asked about the person who turned on her, made her black-eyed and “Sally blue?” implying that Sally is feeling down.
The song highlights how even though Sally does not want to fall apart, it still hurts her anyway. The lyrics suggest that Sally is trying to escape from the pain she is feeling by taking a ride on another train and booking a ticket in another name. The chorus encourages Sally to look for the joy and positivity that is still around her, rather than focusing on the negative situation she has experienced. The clap, clap repetition at the beginning of each verse reinforces the rhythmic drive of the song, giving it a catchy and upbeat feel despite the emotional weight of the lyrics.

i just love this song now, first time i've heard it. People compare him to Freddie but to me in this song he sounds like Prince, which is just amazing. Never in my life have i seen a more sexy musical artist for his genre of music. GO MIKA
