I wanna take my clothes off and shed my cotton skin Let my guardian angel see the person deep within I wanna get to heaven, look the Big Man in the face Ask him why on earth He let us lose the human race
Cause the seats are all booked on the astro plane You can't get a ticket back and do it again I wanna leave my footprints in the sand I wanna show the world, there goes a man
I wanna cross the oceans and sail the seven seas Find the folks responsible for chopping down the trees I wanna teach my children what's right and what is wrong Leave them to a world where they can feel like they belong
Cause we're coming through the edge of my memory and we don't have the tools to build the bridge I wanna leave my footprints in the sand I wanna make a difference if I can I wanna show the world, there goes a man
So take me to your leader and tell me what you see I wanna know what life is like on Vector twenty-three I wanna know the number and the nature of the beast I need to know the truth about the wise man from the east
How I wanna be a lumber, it's no can do Now the man's coming back with the I.O.U. I wanna leave my footprints in the sand I wanna make a difference and I can I wanna show the world, there goes a man
I wanna take my clothes off and shed my cotton skin
I wanna get to heaven, look the Big Man in the face and say, hey Big Man
