I'm ready to try this The center's a sea pit I could be wealthy With nothing to stop me I'm ready to try this (I move underwater) The center's a sea pit (I eat water slaughter) I could be wealthy (Inside a moon and palace) With nothing to stop me (Let's rain another chalice) [Chorus] Out and out and out Out and out and out Shake a fist And let's breathe it in without [Chorus x3] You said if I tried this (I'd be teleported) But when you first tried this (Your mind de-contorted) And if this is heaven (I might have to tell you) I'm gonna give hell, just (A quick one's over) [Chorus x4] "Before we go any further I'd like to show you all a game I made up. This game is called 'Sounds of the Studio'. And it can be played with any record Including this one. You may be surprised! Now if you have a pair of headphones You better get 'em out and get 'em cranked up 'Cause they're really gonna help you" That's a pure solution That's my magic potion That's the incantation That's a pure solution That's my magic potion That's the incantation Bahhhh [Chorus x4] You said if I tried this (I'd be teleported) But when you first tried this (Your mind de-contorted) And if this is heaven (I might have to tell you) I'm gonna give hell, just (A quick one's over) I'm ready to try this (I move underwater) The center's a sea pit (I eat water slaughter) I could be wealthy (Inside a moon and palace) With nothing to stop me (Let's rain another chalice)
