I'm just a monkey trying to be a statue I'd rather stand still forever than face the terror of moving So thank goodness, no matter what I do I'm a tidal wave blade of grass brush fire grain of sand Flat tire broken glass coyote dandelion growing out of a boot Stop talking to yourself all the time, and you'll inherit the earth. Please wake up now, the world really needs you desperately. Stop forcing yourself to be good, and you'll be as kind as the sun Please cheer up now, we've been waiting for you all your life I have ideas. I have them all the time I've gotta make up more of them, or I'll fall behind So thank goodness, no matter what's on my mind, Really we're just here in the living room. And that's just fine Stop talking to yourself all the time, and you'll inherit the earth. Please wake up now, the world really needs you desperately. Stop forcing yourself to be bad, And you'll be as kind as the sun. Please cheer up now, we've been waiting for you all your life This world does need your help so badly, very badly. And so, On behalf of this world, I would like to request you to come and to do something about it
