F# When I was done dying my conscience regainedF# So I began my struggle a nothingness strainedF# Out a flash made of time my new form blasted outF# And it startled me so and I burst out a shoutF# At which my legs ran frantic like birds from a nestF# And I ran until drained leaving no choice but restF# So I fell asleep softly at the edge of a caveF# But I should have gone in deeper but I'm not so braveF# And like that I was torn out and thrown in the skyF# And I said all my prayers because surely I'll dieF# As I crashed down and smashed into earth, into dirtF# How my skin did explode leaving only my shirtF# But from shirt grew a tree and then tree grew a fruitF# And I became the seed and that seed was a bruteF# And I clawed through the ground with my roots and my leavesF# And I tore up the shirt and I ate up the sleevesF# And they laughed out at me and said "what is your plan?"F# But their question was foreign I could not understandF# When then suddenly I'm ripped up and placed in a mouthF# And it swallowed me down at which time I head south [Chorus]F# I saidContinúa después del anuncioD#m Hey ya yaD#m Hey ya yaD#m Hey ya yaB Hey hey heyD#m Hey ya yaD#m Hey ya yaD#m Hey ya yaB Hey hey hey [Verse]F# Well I woke up to see them, these two mighty steedsF# With their mouths grinning wildly expressing my needsF# As they stood there above me, being flanked on each sideF# I felt no need to fear them, no reason to hideF# So I reached up to touch but they faded too soonF# Yet their mouths still remained and stacked up towards the moonF# How that ladder of mouth waved so soft in the nightF# And I looked up in awe at that beautiful sightF# And I dreamt about climbing into the night skyF# But I know had I touched them they'd mouth back 'bye bye'F# So I got up and walked down the path in the darkF# And there deep in the distance my eye caught a sparkF# Of a crab twice my size with incredible strengthF# Oh it greeted me kindly and then we all drankF# And we drooled out together right onto the groundF# And the ocean grew quickly right up all aroundF# And the earth looked at me and said "wasn't that fun?"F# And I replied "I'm sorry if I hurt anyone"F# And without even thinking cast me into spaceF# But before she did that she wiped off my own faceF# She said better luck next time don't worry so muchF# Without ears I couldn't hear I could just feel the touchF# As I fell asleep softly at the edge of a caveF# But I should have gone deeper but I'm not so brave [Chorus]F# I saidD#m Hey ya yaD#m Hey ya yaD#m Hey ya yaB Hey hey heyD#m Hey ya yaD#m Hey ya yaD#m Hey ya yaB Hey hey hey
