Abney Park - Welcome to the Throng lyrics

I am leaving the rain behind
Soon I'll be flying
But, you've got to bear in mind
Just how high up I'm trying
Grab myself by my bootstraps
Leave my baggage behind
Lift myself above it all
I've got a place in mind

Soon I'll be flying five miles up
I'll leave the ground behind
I've gotta get some distance
And set my soul alight
I need to feel the jungle air
I need to smell the trees
I need to kill an afternoon
Just playing with monkeys

Once the plane is on the ground
I'll get into a Jeep
And then I'll switch to elephant
When the trail gets steep
I'll head away from city folks
I'll head into the trees
I'll do my best to get real lost
Underneath the leaves

But there's a clearing in the woods
Where all the animals just start to groove
And they dance all together
Each day and night
And nobody cares what species is right
And they sing and they dance
And they play their songs all night long
Nobody's told that they don't belong
And everyone here is welcome

There's a clearing in the woods
Where all the animals just start to groove
And they dance all together
Each day and night
And nobody cares what species is right
And they sing and they dance
And they play their songs all night long
Nobody's told that they don't belong
And everyone here is welcome to the Throng
Everyone here is welcome to the Throng
Everyone here is welcome to the Throng
Everyone here is welcome to the Throng
Everyone here is welcome to the Throng
