Alright!
Okay, you guys ready to rock and roll?
(Woo! Yeah! Rock and roll!)
KAPOW and ZOOM in the romper room.
My world's a big cartoon
And I'm never gonna leave it now.
A cracker jack-ass prize.
I wanna slip and slide
My secret hide out, ride out
On my big wheels bike.
I hit the thrusters on my mean machine.
It's painted black and green
And I'm never gonna give it up.
So leggo my super hero ego
My psychosis has been molded
Into a ball of Play-doh.
Don't go! Don't go! Don't go!
I wanna be here forever.
Don't go! Don't go! Don't go!
I wanna stay here forever.
Well, hang on and we'll be
Best imaginary friends
To the end.
Recommended
For ages eight and up.
Shake it up
Like an Etch-A-Sketch.
Erase the filthy wretch
Of the life I have rejected now.
Well, Simon says "grow up"
And Simon says "shut up"
And Simon says "give up"
And be like everyone else.
I do not like it on a boat.
Don't like it with a goat.
Don't go! Don't go! Don't go!
I wanna be here forever.
Don't go! Don't go! Don't go!
I wanna stay here forever now.
And I keep a playroom inside my mind.
Sanctuary in which I hide.
Blur the world into a dream, into a lie.
And I am constructing this fantasy.
Imagination is saving me
From the world I despise.
What about loneliness?
What about friends?
What about winning
And getting revenge?
And what about
All of the things that they've done?
It's time for some payback.
It's time for some fun!
It's gone. It's gone. It's gone.
Don't go away. Don't go away. Don't go away and leave me. (x8)
