Story behind the song
Many years ago, Matt, Anne, and Olivia were caught in a snow storm in Cle Elum, Washington. We found sanctuary overnight, and to pass the time, Matt and Olivia (with input from Anne) created a little comic book, a sort of "Xyloman meets Xanadu"pastiche. Somehow the material stuck with Matt, and he wanted to make an animated musical out of the material. Some songs were completed, and some storyboards were created, but the project (as with so many others of his foundered. Just recently after a couple of decades, some of these historic documents were recovered. Perhaps this musical will see the light of day yet! This song features Olivia's swingin vocals. Matt doesn't remember how this song relates to the story at all. Perhaps as other materials are recovered from the archives, the picture will gain some clarity.
Lyrics
When I see you dancing there I want to hide behind my chair Your feet make such a deep impression Think I'll skip this swing dance supersession You've got a style that's all your own One that took you years to hone You say its easy this is how You give your sweetheart a little bow The next thing you have to do Is step and kick and loose a shoe Then promenade with one bare foot Then pintch an inch and just stay put Then do a swivel step to the right Throw yourself down with all your might Get up and sissor kick like anything Doing the Swanky Xyloswing Doing the Swanky Xyloswing
