PART OF THE WORLD


*Spoken*
Maybe he's right
Maybe there is something the matter with me
I just don't see how a world that makes such wonderful things
Could be bad

*Sung*
Look at this stuff
Isn't it neat
Wouldn't you think my collections complete?
Wouldn't you think I'm the girl
The girl who has everything

Look at this trove
Treasures untold
How many wonders can one cavern hold?
Looking around here you'd think
Sure, shes got everything

I've got gadgets and gizmos a-plenty
I've got whos its and whats its galore
You want a Thing-A-Mabobs?
I've got twenty
But who cares?
No big deal
I want more!

I wanna be where the people are
I wanna see
Wanna see them dancing
Walking around on those
What do you call them?
Oh, feet!

Flippin' your fins you don't get to far
Legs are required for jumpin', dancin'
Strolling along down the
Whats that word again? Street

Up where they walk
Up where they run
up where they stay all day in the sun
Wanderin free
Wish I could be
Part of that world

What would I give
If I could live outta these waters
What would I pay
To spend a day
Warm on the sand

Betcha on land
They understand
Bet they don't reprimand their daughters
Bright young women
Sick of swimming
Ready to stand

And ready to know what the people know
Ask them my questions and get some answers
Whats a fire and why does it
Whats the word... Burn?

When's it my turn?
Wouldn't I love
Love to explore
That shore up above

Out of the Sea
Wish I could be
Part of that world
