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 we will both stare 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
 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
 I never get bored never get bogged down, I never get sore in My World
