Come up and be a ki-yi-yite

Beelzebub is aching in my belly-o
My feet are heavy and I'm rooted in my wellios
And I want to get away and go (I want to be)
From all these mirror windows (I want to be)

I look at eye level, it isn't good enough
And then I find it out when I take a good look up
There's a hole in the sky (there's a hole in)
With a big eyeball (there's a hole in the sky)
It's calling me

Come up and be a kite
And fly a diamond night
A diamond kite
A diamond kite
Oo-hoo what a diamond

A diamond kite
On a diamond flight
Over the lights
Under the moon
Over the lights
Under the moon
Over the moon
Over the moon

Come up and be a ki-yi-yite

I feel a rush along my body like a bullet
I'm 2-D after a push-and-pull feeling
And I want to get back (I want to be)
To safe home (I want to be home)
I love the homeland dome

I've got no limbs and I'm like a feather on the wind
I'm not sure if I want to be up here at all
And I'd like to be (I'd like to be)
Back on the ground (I'd like to be down)
But I don't know how to get down
Down
Down

Come up and be a kite
And fly a diamond night
A diamond kite
A diamond kite
Oo-hoo what a diamond

A diamond kite
On a diamond flight
Over the lights
Ooh under the moon
Over the lights
Ooh under the moon
Over the moon
Over the moon

Come up and be a ki-yi-yite
Come up and be a ki-yi-yite
