I'm takin' a boat Sailing the edge Of this two-dimensional world And I'm gonna fly Out into space Where there's no gravity And I know I'm going to feel better out there I'm takin' my coat And I'm gonna walk Out of this two-dimensional room And I'm gonna sit Out in the street Where no one will look at me And I know I'm gonna be much better out there You're a shade of blue You know me, I know you And anyway it's something I don't do So it's come to this, rock and roll It's so ludicrous that my soul Has escaped from my body Dreams blanket the trees Cover my bed As I pass it by on the train Where I am asleep In a cocoon Floating high above all the shit That's making me feel that's it better up here But I have to decend For someone I love He is wasting from the world Of roses and beds And wishing you were dead 'Cause you're so sick of gravity And I know he's gonna be better up here You're a shade of blue You know me, I know you And running away, it's something I can't do So it's come to this, rock and roll It's so ludicrous that my soul Has escaped from my body And that's not so bad I'm in Trinidad Being made into a toy It's so ludicrous that my soul It's so ludicrous that my soul Has escaped from my body
