Eighth Wonder
Extra clever
Earth-bound spirit
Ghost in the form
Of a mongoose
And I have hands
And I have feet
I'll never die
I am a freak
Hello, I'm here
I'm living in the wall
I know I might be small, but
I, I, I am a freak
Thou wilt never
Know what I am
I am the fifth dimension
And I'll split the atom
And if you see me (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
You're paralyzed
Pillar of salt (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
You're mummified
Hello, I'm here
I'm living in the wall
I know I might be small
But I am the eighth wonder
And I was born
1852
And I was born
In India
And I shall haunt
Like the Buggane
With such weird noise
And clanking chains
Hello, I'm here
I'm living in the wall
I know I might be small, but
I, I, I am a freak
I say "vanished"
To underground
Jim, let me go
I watch like Hell
And I have hands (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I have feet
I'll never die (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
I am a freak
Hello, I'm here
I'm living in the wall
I know I might be small
But I am the eighth wonder
Eighth wonder of the world
You'll never get to see
What in the name of God can I be?
Earth-bound spirit
Ghost in the form
Of a mongoose
And I have hands
And I have feet
I'll never die
I am a freak
Hello, I'm here
I'm living in the wall
I know I might be small, but
I, I, I am a freak
Thou wilt never
Know what I am
I am the fifth dimension
And I'll split the atom
And if you see me (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
You're paralyzed
Pillar of salt (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
You're mummified
Hello, I'm here
I'm living in the wall
I know I might be small
But I am the eighth wonder
And I was born
1852
And I was born
In India
And I shall haunt
Like the Buggane
With such weird noise
And clanking chains
Hello, I'm here
I'm living in the wall
I know I might be small, but
I, I, I am a freak
I say "vanished"
To underground
Jim, let me go
I watch like Hell
And I have hands (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I have feet
I'll never die (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
I am a freak
Hello, I'm here
I'm living in the wall
I know I might be small
But I am the eighth wonder
Eighth wonder of the world
You'll never get to see
What in the name of God can I be?
