I am what I eat, straight up Earth, right? Nothing but a walking sack of earth nice to meet you How do you do, guess what, you're one too My skin holds me in, my brain moves me then Boom I jump straight off the speaker in a form A celebration that we're moving Freely disconnected, I'm truly grateful I'm going back to the earth, I'm not gonna waste life being hateful ---> Play Pre-Chorus - A over: Kingdom coming through ya ---> Play Pre-Chorus - B over: Kingdom coming through ya ---> Play Chorus over: Jumpin' out of my skin, The skin I'm in And the hydroponic's on ---> Play Chorus - End ---> Play Riff 1 over: Did it because we wanna, took up until it's gone An abstract notion here to connect me to the ocean Cause I'm water and carbon and not much else I feel compunction, Conjunction Junction what's your function I'll be hooking up verbs and nouns and phrases and clause As to the causes of misery quizically I look to my own book hooked on trying to fathom The solar systems and atom in a larger molecule Called a galaxy, cool, the the Milky Way is where I stay ---> Play Riff 2 (a+b) over: Astronomy steppin' stompin' a pow wow I rock the mike and shake up the ground, and I'm a bust out like Wild dandelions in fat bloom I'm shooting through the cosomos because you know I loom You know I'm higher, I'm shining brighter, yes yes Like where water comes together with other water foamin' Now I'm homin' like a bird soaring right to the moon I'm a wildflower busting out I go boom ---> Play Pre-Chorus - A over: Kingdom coming through ya ---> Play Pre-Chorus - B over: Kingdom coming through ya ---> Play Chorus over: Jumpin' out of my skin, The skin I'm in And the hydroponic's on ---> Play Chorus and Fill 1 over: Jumpin' out of my skin, The skin I'm in And the hydroponic's on == Last Updated: April 28, 1996 ==
