Am I just a figment of my imagination?
Conjured up by an alien nation
Now it’s not impossible, mind you
Like you, I’m a just a ball of atoms, or so they say
When I walk, my legs wanna carry me round
Where my head wants, and where my body’s found
And my lungs, they fill me with the chemicals
The chemicals that make me make me
I think too much about life
It’s like my head’s on a kite
Watching it all go by
It’s like my head’s on a kite
Sometimes at night I’ll lay in bed for hours
Pondering the unanswerable powers
What a goddamn conundrum
Just enjoy it is what I always end up saying
Evolving creatures of selection
And all that bull shit about connections
Wake me up and teach me revolution
‘Cause evolution’s not doing so well
Can you see your house from here or are you staring upwards?
