Sometimes I wish I hadn't gotten that tattoo
Sometimes I wish I'd married you
One hundred fires  One hundred days
Sometimes I feel like a stranger
Sometimes I tell lies (Whoa ho)
Sometimes I act like a monkey
Here come the night

And then kerjillions of stars start to shine
And icy comets go whizzing by
And everything's shaking with a strange delight
And here it is:  the enormous night

And oo my eyes  They're lookin all around
And oo my feet  I'm upside down

If I were the president  If I were Queen for a day
I'd give the ugly people all the money
I'd re-write the Book of Love  I'd make it funny
Wheel of fortune  Wheel of fame
Two hundred forty million voices
Two hundred forty million names

And down in the ocean where nobody goes
Some fish are fast  Some are slow
Some swim round the world  Some hide below
This is the ocean  So deep  So old.

And then kerjillions of stars start to shine
And icy comets go whizzing by
And everything's shaking with a strange delight
And here it is:  the enormous night

And oo my eyes  They're lookin all around
And oo my feet  They've left the ground

So cry me a river that leads to a road
That turns into a highway that goes and goes
And tangles in your memories
So long  So old.
