Christopher Cross - Secret Ladder

Experiment

Under a tree where I lay with my lies
Somethin' or someone bestowed a surprise
Tellin' me I had no use for my eyes
If I really wanted to see

Walkin' me tall like a priest with no pope
No one in lab coats and no one with dope
Nobody danglin' some flimsy old hope
And nothing to do but to be

All my baggage sent on ahead, gentleman style
All I remember are people who smile
Holdin' the world in the palm of my hand
Feelin' my pulse like the bass in a band
Welcomin' chaos, I can't understand

Hey, I'm an experiment
Hey, I'm an experiment
Hey, I'm an experiment
A most willin' subject am I

Now the abyss seems to have its allure
No ground to stand on and nothin' secure
Why should a monkey like me feel so pure
Kissin' tomorrow goodbye

Far from the comfort of all my despair
Every wrong thought is a wisp in the air
I try to worry but nothin' is there
I throw up my hands and I cry

All I wanted falls at my feet, holy and bright
All I remember is what I did right
Holdin' the world in the palm of my hand
Feelin' my pulse like the bass in a band
Findin' amazement wherever I land

Hey, I'm an experiment
Hey, I'm an experiment
Hey, I'm an experiment
Be an experiment
Hey, I'm an experiment
Hey, I'm an experiment
Hey, I'm an experiment
Find your experiment

I'm an experiment
I'm an experiment
I'm an experiment
I'm an experiment
I'm an experiment
I'm an experiment
I'm an experiment
