Standing around hoping everything works out 'Cus I want them all to work out Why did you change? Why did you land? Was it something in the stories everyone told you Maybe you believe them Maybe you should leave them Go back to where you came from Why did you land? You could have stayed in flight forever Look at the photograph - nothing is real Spend another lonely life With nothing to feel Explain to me the big blue sea Or the place where certain stars collapse The singers song is always too long Like everything we taught you To all Tarzans of Rock and Industry Janes The song has been written ??? The lucky pimps shall have the best And let imagination rock you Why did you land?
