Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lookin' at the devil
Grinnin' at his gun
Fingers start shakin'
I begin to run
Bullets start chasin'
I begin to stop
We begin to wrastle
I was on the top

[Chorus]
I want to thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
Thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin

[Verse 2]
Stiff all in the collar
Fluffy in the face
Chit chat chatter tryin'
Stuffy in the place
Thank you for the party
But I could never stay
Many thangs on my mind
Words in the way

[Chorus]
I want to thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
Thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin

[Verse 3]
Dance to the music
All nite long
Everyday people
Sing a simple song
Mama's so happy
Mama start to cry
Papa still singin'
You can make it if you try

[Chorus]
I want to thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
(Different strokes for different folks, yeah)
Thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin

[Verse 4]
Flamin' eyes of people fear
Burnin' into you
Many men are missin' much
Hatin' what they do
Youth and truth are makin' love
Dig it for a starter, now
Dyin' young is hard to take
Sellin' out is harder

[Chorus]
Thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
I want to thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
Thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
Thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin
I want to thank you falettinme
Be mice elf agin

What have other artists said about this song?

D'Angelo called this the ‘essential’ Sly Stone song:

For him to be as big and influential as he was – and then turn around and do that? I mean, he had already put his flag in the ground commercially. If he never wrote another song ever again in his life, he nailed it with that one. And, there’s Lar...

What did Sly and the Family Stone say about "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)"?

Like so many other songs it meant what it said. I wanted to thank people in general, the everyday people, if they let me be me, if they let others be others, if others let them be them. We exist to coexist.

Why is the title spelt that way?

Mice [and] elf [were] small, humble things that were small reminders of how big the rest of the world was. You had to stand up straight to be seen at all.
