I could never ask for what I really wanted So I bought one for you, just to see me through So put your hand in my hand and we'll swim through warmer waters Push through the tiny door into the ball
Each and every room is different from the other one There's one for every day of a beautiful life Delivery in a broken box means better in-flight video I'm afraid I've heard it all before
This one has no gravity and that one's upside down And that one's full of buttons you press to feel The all round audio-visual masterpiece of pleasure But you must still be ready for the falls Not all of them are happy and some are far from funny But every one will help you on your way
Everything you want is here, though I'd better make it clear This soul's mine and that's the way it's going to stay Everyone you know is here, even those that disappeared They just hid out here amongst the trees
And everything you ever lost, they kept it here in one big box And everywhere you look there's birds and trees and hope And every moment when you shined, they caught it on video just in time And all your best one-liners are down here on audio-cassette
If you're frightened of the future watch it on TV Though there's probably not much that you'd want to see Though I guess you could get ahead with your favourite soaps
You want wisdom, then try seventy, want to be cool then go back fifty Everywhere you look there's birds and trees and it's wonderful You to me were twisted kind but now I'm here and I find I can see it's mine and it's wonderful
