lyrics

I thought so much I stretched my brain,
Now we can all take cover in the pouring rain under my big head

Hypothesized now prosthelysized
Is my body on straight? Does it match the eyes on my big head?

The ever-growing hemispheres are
Running out of room in here
Now I'm lucky if I keep her up

No body ever knew my name til they
Saw the locks of the giant mane on my big head

Front cover of a fashion magazine
Now they all wanna look the same as my big head

Away away away, I'm gonna float away
Hoist the anchor and drop the ballast
And meet me in the space out there
And soon the news will say "If we grow a little more each day,
We'll need our own ZIP codes and ground controls
And shopping malls with Big and Talls"

No body ever knew my name til they
Climbed the stalks of the giant mane on my big head
Now the traffic looks like rice and grains, so I
Tip my big hat to the passing planes by my big head

We're filling up the skies like fireflies
Dot the hillsides in the summertime

Now photosynthesis is done
One by one we block out the sun with our big heads
The world's together under sentient skies
We've obliterated all truth and lies under our big heads

Away away away
We're all gonna float away
With our big heads
