I wanna take my clothes off
and shed my cotton skin
Let my guardian angel
see the person deep within
I wanna get to heaven,
look the Big Man in the face
Ask him why on earth
He let us lose the human race
Cause the seats are all booked on the astro plane
You can't get a ticket back and do it again
I wanna leave my footprints in the sand
I wanna show the world,
there goes a man
I wanna cross the oceans
and sail the seven seas
Find the folks responsible
for chopping down the trees
I wanna teach my children
what's right and what is wrong
Leave them to a world
where they can feel like they belong
Cause we're coming through the edge of my memory
and we don't have the tools to build the bridge
I wanna leave my footprints in the sand
I wanna make a difference if I can
I wanna show the world,
there goes a man
So take me to your leader
and tell me what you see
I wanna know what life is like
on Vector twenty-three
I wanna know the number
and the nature of the beast
I need to know the truth
about the wise man from the east
How I wanna be a lumber, it's no can do
Now the man's coming back with the I.O.U.
I wanna leave my footprints in the sand
I wanna make a difference and I can
I wanna show the world,
there goes a man
I wanna take my clothes off
and shed my cotton skin
I wanna get to heaven,
look the Big Man in the face
and say, hey Big Man
