"Above The Ground" lyrics - BURTON CUMMINGS

Been changin' my flight for a week now,
Not a chance of gettin' off the ground
And I mighta lost some o' my marbles
So I'm checkin' with the lost and found
I'm only tryna stay ahead of danger
And the tickin' of the thin red hand
But in a half a second I got older
It's gettin' harder now to understand
Wo woh time keep runnin'
Gettin' my stopwatch wound
Wo woh moon or sunnin'
Day and night'll both be... day and night'll both be...
Keepin' me above the ground.

Been wakin' up with my nose in the eggs now
And I suppose that I could use a shower
But I'll never turn the other cheek now
I guess the "tude" is gettin' dark and sour
I gotta man-up to what I been thinkin'
Not a crime to wanna kick it alone
But I have come to know what is a real crime
To mortify what you don't own
Wo woh, time keep runnin'
Gettin' my stopwatch wound...
Wo woh, moon or sunnin'
Day and night'll both be... day and night'll both be...
Keepin' me above the ground.

Shoot for the ground and you know what you'll find...
You'll get the ground every time...
Shoot for the moon while your thoughts stay sublime...
You'll get something in between

Wo woh, time keep runnin'
Gettin' my stopwatch wound...
Wo woh, moon or sunnin'
Day and night'll both be... day and night'll both be...
Keepin' me above the ground.
