Testo The Flat Earth - Thomas Dolby

The Flat Earth

Friends have often asked me why I’m sensitive about my height
I would look around and say, I thought I was immune
All my life I have waited to be given any word
It was screaming to be heard (Please, please, please remember)
(Hold me, baby) The earth can be any shape you want it (Love me, darling),
(Believe me, darling) any shape at all
(Please remember) (Hold me, baby) Dark and cold or bright and warm, (Love me,
darling) long or thin or small
(Believe me, darling) But it’s home ((Home maybe) Hold me, baby) and all I ever
had (Please remember)
(Love me, darling) And maybe why for me (Believe me, darling) the earth is flat
Turn the island to the storm tonight, turn it Then when they spill the demon seed, turn and face into the wind
All along you still believed, believed you were immune
And if love is all you’re missing, look into your heart, is anybody home?
(Please, please, please remember)
(Hold me, baby) The earth can be any shape you want it (Love me, darling),
(Believe me, darling) any in the world
(Please remember) (Hold me, baby) Don’t you point that raygun at me, (Love me,
darling) I might just explode
(Believe me, darling) There are stones ((Home maybe) Hold me, baby) buried in your soul (Please remember)
(Love me, darling) And only a fool would blame the death of (Believe me,
darling) rock and roll
(Hold me, baby) And in time ((Time baby) Love me, darling), you’ll come to understand (Please remember)
(Believe me, darling) The flat old earth is in your (Hold me, baby) gentle hands
