Burton Cummings - Above The Ground lyrics

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.
