LYRICS
The perception of a precipice
Is you’re on top of a sheer drop
Will you go splat… or will you go plop?
This getting steep is getting deep
Especially if the height gives you a fright
I’m afraid I must harp on the scarp
Less we become lemmings
Or, I don’t know… buffalo
On the edge of going over the ledge
Throwing ourselves off the cliff
No common sense… not even a whiff
To fear a sheer drop
Will you go splat… or will you go plop?
Will you puddle or will you turn stiff
Going over a cliff….
