Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ahh
Last night, I had a dream
I found myself in a desert called: Cyberland
It was hot, my canteen had sprung a leak, and I was thirsty
Out of the abyss walked a cow, Elsie
I asked if she had anything to drink
She said
"I'm forbidden to produce milk
In Cyberland, we only drink Diet Coke"
She said
[Verse 2]
"Only thing to do is jump over the moon"
[Verse 3]
They've closed everything real down like barns and troughs and
Performance spaces
And replaced it all with lies and rules and
Virtual life
But there is a way out
[Chorus]
Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith
Ooh, only thing to do is jump over the moon (Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith)
Leap of faith
[Verse 4]
I gotta get outta here
It's like I'm being tied to the hood of a yellow rental truck
Being packed in with fertilizer
And fuel oil pushed over a cliff by a suicidal Mickey Mouse
I've gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta find a way
To jump over the moon
[Chorus]
Only thing to do is jump over the moon (Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith)
[Verse 5]
Then a little bull dog entered
His name, we have learned, was Benny
And although he once had principles
He abandoned them to live as a lapdog
To a wealthy daughter of the revolution
"Uh, one, two, three, that's bull," he said
Ever since that cat took up the fiddle, that cow's been jumping
The dish and the spoon were evicted from the table and eloped
She's had trouble with her milk and the moon ever since
Maybe it's a female thing
'Cause who'd want to leave Cyberland anyway?
Walls ain't so bad
The dish and the spoon, for instance, they're down on their luck
They come knocking on my doghouse door and I say
"Not in my backyard, utensils, go back to China"
[Verse 6]
The only way out is up
Elsie whispered to me, "A leap of faith"
Still thirsty?
Parched, have some milk
And I lowered myself beneath her swollen utter
And I sucked the sweetest milk I had ever tasted
'Climb onboard," she said
And as the harvest moon rose over Cyberland
We reared back, we sprang into a gallop
Leaping, out of orbit, I awoke singing
[Chorus]
Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith
Ooh, only thing to do
Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith
Only thing to do is jump
Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith
Only thing to do is jump over the moon
Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith
Only thing to do is jump over the moon
Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith
Over the moon
Over the
Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith
Moo, Moo, Moo!
Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith
Moo with me
Leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith, leap of faith
