I have tried marijuana
   I get nervous any time
   There will come a knockin' at the door
   Why is everybody makin' eyes at me ?
   I don't want to know
   Excuse and pardon me
   Stay for a while
   Maybe we'll never
   meet again
  
   I can see my lifetime piling up
   I can see the days turn into nights
   I can see the people on the street
   Open those windows up
   - A hundred floors below me
   Pilin' those houses up
   Pilin' them higher, higher, higher
   I can feel them swayin' back and forth
   Building it higher, higher
   - This tower's learning over
  
   I got bad coordination
   Stuck a pencil in my eye
   I can hardly wait to get back home
   Why is everybody gettin' paranoid ?
   I's only havin' fun
   Scum bags and superstars
   Tell me your names
   I'll make a bet, you're
   both the same
  
   I can see my lifetime pilin' up
   Reaching from my bedroom to the stars
   I can see the house where I was born
   When I was growin' up... they say that
   I could never keep my trousers up
   I remember days and crazy nights
   Are there any pirates on this ship ?
   And if they sober up - they have us
   Home by morning
  
   Cry, cry, cry
   It's just you and I -
   Like an automobile
   with no one at the wheel
   Spinning out of control
   We're all over the road
   In our sexy machine
   All the passengers scream
   Scream, scream !
  
   I can see my lifetime pilin' up
   I can see it smashin' into yours
   It was not as accident at all
   Open those windows up - I hear you laughin'
  
   Goin' from the bottom to the top
   Maybe I'm holding on too tight
   And now I'm foldin' up
   I got a funny feeling
   Pilin' them houses up
   Pilin' them higher, higher, higher
   Building that highway to the stars
   Turning the music up - Hey!
   I got a winning number
