My World

There’s a highway where gravity stopped working
Cars and trucks are flying high above the town
You should see the faces, pressed against the windows
As they try to find a way back down
People stand and watch behind the barricades
Everyone is arguing but no one can explain
Scientists and lawyers and all the other experts
Don’t know what to do about the sudden lack of gravity in my world
It’s a very nice arrangement here in my world
It’s always entertaining here in my world
I never get bored, never get bogged down
I never get sore in my world
Keith and I are pretty different from each other. You can just look up here at
this stage and tell. I’m real tall, and Keith is… average height, for a woman.
Anyway, we do have one thing in common, and that is that we will stare off
into space at totally inappropriate moments. People look at us and say things
like, «Hey man, you’re staring into space again! Where are you?» So we tell
them
There’s a treasure chest buried in the backyard
My friends and I are going to find it after school
Pirates hid their silver right here in the suburbs
As a matter of fact, we now have proof
Inside a wall, we found an ancient treasure map
Folded up and hidden in a tin can
With lines and X’s and even a skull and crossbones
Gonna dig it up, gonna make it rich in my world
It’s a very nice arrangement here in my world
It’s always entertaining here in my world
I never get bored, never get bogged down
I never get sore in my world
Work it out
When I walk, my feet are sinking in the sidewalk
Just like I’m walking on a trampoline
And when I jump into the air, everybody ducks their heads
Then I bounce, just like on a trampoline
When I fall, I never skin my knees
Everybody wants to pick me for their basketball team
I’m the youngest player in the NBA
Hollywood wants to make a big-screen movie ‘bout my world
It’s a very nice arrangement here in my world
It’s always entertaining here in my world
I never get bored, never get bogged down
I never get sore in my world
It’s a very nice arrangement here in my world
It’s always entertaining here in my world
I never get bored, never get bogged down
I never get sore in my world
