I live on a big blueball
I never do dream I may fall
But even the day that I do
I'll jump off and smile back at you
I don't even know where we are
They tell us we're circling a star
Well, I'll take their word, for I don't know
But I'm dizzy so it may be that's so
I'm riding a big blue ball
And never do dream I may fall
But even the high must lay low
So when I do fall I'll be glad to go
