 I've grown so fond of gravity
Sometimes I like to breathe
And now that I've got used to it
I find it hard to say "I will be leaving"
The stars so distant, the heavens so wide
And it's not safe to even venture outside
If you see me walking and I start to cry
Don't wonder why I'm shaking my fist at the sky
'Cos I'm earthbound and my fate is unknown
Yes, I'm earthbound and I feel like, I feel like leaving my home
The forgotten rapture of sun-drenched days
Pray you didn't stay out in those poisonous rays
And if you think that this is only a dream
Jesus probably wants you for a sunbeam
'Cos I'm earthbound and my fate is unknown
Yes, I'm earthbound and I feel like, I feel like leaving my home
The mutant creatures washed up in the tide
And if I don't weep, it's only my alien pride
Businessmen barter sky-scraping deals
It's hard to credit that once this really was fields
The ground opens up and swallows your appeals
Spare us the dangerous elements that it yields
'Cos I'm earthbound and my fate is unknown
Yes, I'm earthbound and I feel like, I feel like leaving my home
The faint embrace of gravity
Is causing my delay
Yes, cancel my departure
Looks like I'm here to stay
'Cos I'm earthbound and my fate is unknown
Yes, I'm earthbound and I feel like, I feel like leaving my home
