Wonderful Place lyrics

Lyrics

Yeah..
Yeah, uh-huh..
It's good..

[Verse]
Damn, it's setting in now (I'm so high)
'Cause cartoons are turning into real life
Lemons and limes are fighting
Fighting over straws
Like they were oil filled pipes

Why's the sun writing this song?
Why is this funny to me?
All of a sudden the mouse comes along
And what he sings brings harmony..

[Chorus]
You may not understand
Why there's a smile on my face
It's 'cause this world could be
Such a wonderful place

'Cause some of these companies
2003 get erased
But oh not me man
I see a wonderful place
The world's a wonderful place, yeah!

My soul's in my smile ho-oh
Don't frown
Just get up, get up
(X4 overlap)

Look at the birds
Look at the bees
Look at the skies
Look at the seas
It's a wonderful place

Look at the planes
Look at the cars
Look at the sun
Look at the stars

[Verse]
The wallpaper's moving
My arms and my legs leave a blur
When I swipe
Sap is just oozing
The trees say, "smoke blocks the sun."
So for them it's just night

The seven eyes looking through the clouds
Why is that funny to me?
And here comes the mouse singin, loud
And what he sings, it brings harmony..

[Chorus]

My soul's in my smile
Don't frown
Just get up, get up
(X4)

Part two:

So she tells her man lets go fishing
We'll go tomorow marlon when the sun rise
And then she says she wants to take her kids and
That's her boy that's 12 and her daughter that's 4 with angel eyes

So they get there
And the sun is barely risen
Decided on a spot where the fish is plentiful with the tide
They get out their pose daddy smiles and says the fish is jumping
Then they heard a splash but it sounded bigger than fish size

12 year old screams mom and mom screams back
The baby that was holding your arm
But that 30 seconds ago so they jumped in
All coming up with nothing
But then..

Something told mom look toward the light
But the sun wasn't yellow it had turned white
So she listended and swam, swam for the light
Like the michelin man she swam with such might

She spotted the baby and she was on her back
Just as the light said sunrise was heavens' track
She turned her baby over
Her eyes were still blue
The baby had a smile and said..

I was waiting for you
Mom I was waiting for you
Your baby
Momma
I love you
And I was waiting for you
Hey
I was waiting for you
I was waiting for you... momma
I was waiting for you

I love you mom
