The Next Dimension (Bonus Track)

(album: Dinosaurchestra - 2006)

Before stairs were invented, before ladders were invented, before express elevators were invented, and before two-story buildings were invented, people stuck to the ground and the world we lived in was more or less flat, more or less two-dimensional. But somewhere along the line, someone with too much money and time, well, they just said, "Hey, I'm gonna build another house on top of my house." And humanity said, "That's an interesting concept. I think we should go with it." And I said...

See you in the next dimension
It's beyond our comprehension
Life is lovely, not to mention

See you in the next dimension
It's beyond our comprehension
Life is lovely, not to mention
Extra lively
Pyramid says, "In God we trust,"
Maybe that's a lie

To label dimensions, are vertically lined
And if we find time to leave numbers behind
We'll get close encounters of the God-knows-what kind

See you in the next dimension
It's beyond our comprehension
Life is lovely, not to mention
Extra lively
Pyramid says, "In God we trust,"
Maybe that's a lie
So he can get away from us

P.S. Never mind everything I just said
