Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Flying saucers, levitation
Yo, I could do that
Get ready for heavy duty
Go on, give it a chance
[Verse 2]
Give it a chance, give it a chance
I saw your hair start to curl
So get up, write it down
You better wait for a while
[Verse 3]
So take your hands out of your pockets
And get your face adjusted
I heard it, somebody lied
And I'm starin' out the window
Gonna let this thing continue
In its natural time
[Verse 4]
Roundheads, squareheads
Get settled in
You can hear my belly rumble
There's a voice that starts to mumble
Woo, it's starting to sing
[Verse 5]
Protons, neutrons
I ate a rock from the moon
Got shocked once, shocked twice
Let's see what it can do
[Verse 6]
Man in the moon, moon in the man
I got a rock in my throat
Upside, upside down
My tummy start to talk, what it say?
[Verse 7]
Gonna rock it 'til I shock it
Gonna kick it 'til I drop it
Woo, love at first sight
You can kick it, you can poke it
Ooh, I think you broke it
Boom, what about that
[Verse 8]
Skin from a snake, blood from a stone
You know, that ain't no lie
I got hundreds of expressions
Try to make a good impression
Woo, right between the eyes
[Verse 9]
I don't mind, let me go
Right on time, I don't know
Let me be, why not stay
I feel numb, let me play
[Verse 10]
I got wild imagination
Talkin' transubstantiation
Any version will do
I got mass communication
I'm the human corporation
I ate a rock from the moon
[Verse 11]
Moon in the rock, rock in the moon
There's a moon in my throat
You might think I'm wasting time
You might laugh, but not for long
Hey, I'm workin' it out (Work it out)
[Verse 12]
I don't mind, let me go
Sounds inside, I don't know
Let me be, why not stay
I feel numb, let me play
