each step i take
into the mysterious waters
i tremble in fear.
each step i take
towards the flame, the fire
the heat burns.
each step i take
nearer to the unfeeling ice
it n u m b s.
each step i take
into the unknown, unknown
i wander alone.
each step is
a danger
a risk.
each step
takes
courage.
part of that world
Look at this stuff. Isn't it neat?
Wouldn't you think my collection's complete?
Wouldn't you think I'm the girl,
The girl who has everything?
Look at this trove; treasure's untold.
How many wonders can one cavern hold?
Lookin' around here you'd think,
"Sure. She's got everything."
I've got gadgets and gizmoes of plenty.
I've got whozits and whatzits galore.
You want thingamabobs?
I got twenty, But who cares?
No big deal.
I want more.
I wanna be where the people are.
I wanna see, wanna see 'em dancin';
Walkin' around on those..
What do you call 'em? Oh, feet.
Flippin' your fins, you don't get too far.
Legs are required for jumpin', dancin',
Strollin' along down a..
What's that word again? Street.
Up where they walk.
Up where they run.
Up where they stay all day in the sun,
Wanderin' free.
Wish I could be Part of that world.
What would I give if I could live out of these waters?
What would I pay to spend a day warm on the sand?
Betcha on land, they understand,
That they don't reprimand their daughters.
Bright young women, sick of swimmin',
Ready to stand
And ready to know what the people know.
Ask 'em my questions and get some answers.
"What's a fire and why does it..
What's the word? Burn?"
When's it my turn?
Wouldn't I love
But to explore that shore up above?
Out of the sea.
Wish I could be Part of that world.
