Jealous for home, but our only home is blown!
I see what they say, going out which the song
is see the bone, the bone,
our only home's a beachball.
Our only home's a beachball.
I see what they say, going out which the song
is see the bone, the bone,
our only home's a beachball.
Our only home's a beachball.
Original Lyrics:
We yearn to swim for home, but our only home is bone
How sleepless is the egg knowing that which throws the stone
Foresees the bone, the bone
Our only home is bone
Our only home is bone
How sleepless is the egg knowing that which throws the stone
Foresees the bone, the bone
Our only home is bone
Our only home is bone
