Thunderland

We're getting closer to heaven
I know it isn't that far away
Saw the clock at eleven eleven
The wish I made to you I cannot say
I must've been like seven
My father put his records on let 'em play
And by the time I was eleven
I didn't know it then but I was
Already on my way!

Picked up his guitar and then I played
It wasn't nothing special at first
It wasn't nothing special
But I kept on pulling some strings never strayed
I never strayed
Now I made a hit one to spit a verse

Grandfather played the piano said he was in the band
Said "Sit down I'll teach you a lesson"
I had never seen hands do that before
And when he hit those chords
The keys seemed to fall down effortlessly
Hypnotizing abilities yeah
In my family tree

I could put 'em in a trance
Make 'em dance put your hands up
Stand up make your stance tough
And the chance of me understanding
Your love just ain't enough so
I'm flying off the floor up above

I'm a thunder-bird
Making lighting in the sky
I'm a thunder-bird
Hear me strike as I pass by

I tried to be a people person
But these people ain't personable
I know for better it worsens
I know for certain!
No my soul ain't purchasable
And even if the bread goes stale
This soul just ain't for sale!
Won't sell my soul
I just set my goals
And then I achieve them
Especially if I believe in them

Word to the wise
Your words aren't that wise
I'm right before your eyes
I'm not in disguise
They say everybody has a price...

They wonder why I've never had a heart of malice
I'm lost in Thunderland, looking for Alice
They wonder why I've never had a heart of malice
I'm lost in Thunderland, looking for Alice

Looking for Alice in Thunderland
