I lost all of the money Is that going to be a problem I can get it back somehow I can feel In the air it's stirring Something big Opportunity knocking One right move In the right place at the right time And we're free Anything you think you need You just ask for it baby I'll go down into my knees You just ask for it baby The only hunger I can feed You can ask for it baby Even if it makes me bleed Don't Hesitate I won't bail on my promise To stay out of your business Until I get back the money I could kidnap Some eccentric billionaire's Only child Hold him out for a ransom then Rendezvous In a shady bar In the Phillippines Anything you think you need You just ask for it baby I'll go down into my knees You just ask for it baby The only hunger I can feed You can ask for it baby Even if it makes me bleed Don't hesitate Hesitate. Don't Hesitate! Hesitate. Don't Hesitate! Hesitate. Don't Hesitate! Hesitate.

Mauna Kea 03:41
Check out this lawn chair I got it on sale Isn't it wonderful? TOUCH IT! It's made of wicker The pork roast is piping hot Your show's coming on That'd be the dryer Your jim jams and undies all done Put these ones on Flying is easy A bluebird told me The trick is landing Here at the kitchen window Mauna Kea's in sight I tried to climb it one time But I was afraid of heights And as I stood there fetal Bird cut across the sky Hovering over my eyes she whispered See, baby, I can fly Come on, now, see, baby, I can fly Now you try Woke up in a bathroom Crashed out like a jet A big pile of nothing waits at the edge Of a rainbow of pills This one's for apathy But it makes me too happy My valleys are so low The sand in them burns my toes Palm trees are hissing Flying ain't hard, you know A bluebird told me so The trick is landing Here at the kitchen window Mauna Kea's in sight I'm gonna climb it right now I'm not afraid of heights Flap, flap, flap oh my arms are lifting Christ, I can touch the sky Life me, oh, up into the sunset See, baby, I can fly Come, on, now, see, baby, I, can, fly Who needs to land?

The separatist chooses to be on his own Where no one can reach him by cellular phone Away from the faces in social disguise He leaves not a trail of himself when he dies You don't realize You don't realize Skies are the limit as most people find A separatist peels back the layers behind Revealing the brick wall encasing the sky He punches right through it and takes off and flies You don't realize You don't realize Oooh ooooh oh ooooh oh oh OOOOOO.... ....OOOOOOOOOH! OOOOOOOO.... Oooh ooooooooh oh ohhh oh oh oooh oooh ....OOOOOOOOOOOH OH OH OH OOOOOOOO.... Oooh ooooh oh ooooh oh oh ....OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH! Oooh ooooh oh ooooh oh oh oh OH!
