[Verse 1] That bastard had a head like a matchstick Face like he was sucking concrete through a straw "Some faces not even a mother can love." Says the spit and spatter of broken glass from above "There's a tombstone where your headboard used to be." They tell him every night before sleep Every night before he dreams big and comes complete Then he sees himself floating high above the certainty of his feet Sees some gutless worm, seeking a free ride inside the stomach of a whale He can live without air for several days, he says He says he knows things, this man, he says He says he wouldn't wait for the light or the dark to fade He says you'll want to move for the mouths of the damned elite [Chorus] Their bodies are open Their channels are open This world is opening up Up, up, up [Verse 2] "Yeah, I'm good for whatever" The other smiles convinced Tell me what's best and when, I'll save the date I'll set the tone, I'll wander in my sleep They each raise a glass and clang "Here's to what will Here's to the sharpened pencil Splitting the cast from the skin Curing the itch, curling the toes Here's to celebrity and fulfillment Here's to the top of the world Here's to a tired leaning wall Here's to the tragedy to ensue." [Chorus] Their bodies are open Their channels are open This world is opening up Up, up, up Their bodies are open Their channels are open This world is opening up Up, up, up, up, up [Outro] Today's gonna feel like tomorrow, some day Tomorrow's gonna feel like yesterday This world is opening up This world is opening up Today's gonna feel like tomorrow today (This world is opening up) Tomorrow's gonna feel like yesterday Today's gonna feel like tomorrow today (This world is opening up) Tomorrow's gonna feel like yesterday Today's gonna feel like tomorrow today (This world is opening up) Tomorrow's gonna feel like Gonna feel like (This world is opening up) It's gonna feel like (This world is opening up) It's gonna feel like It's gonna feel like (This world is opening up) It's gonna feel like It's gonna feel like
