Well I am up here
Up here so high
So high up
I kiss the sky
And nothing, nothing's gonna bring me down
No, no, no
Nothing bad is headed my way
I'm gonna have me a happy day
Live it large like the Mardi Gras
And kick the pricks in their big ol' ass
I put on my rock and roll shoes
And jump on off the tower of blues, yeah
The tower of blues
The tower of blues
Well I am up here
Way up a stream
So high up
My life is a dream
And nothing, nothing's gonna wake me up
No, no, no
I'm taking time to smell me a rose
Smell it till it decompose
Nothing's ever gonna ever bum me out
Being gay is what it's all about
I am up here
Up on a mountain
The water's sweet
As a soda fountain
And nothing, nothing's gonna wreck my day
No, no, no
You can tell me that I am a fool
Suck me down in your whirlpool
Rain on me with your bad vibes
Stab me with your stinging gibes
