The Hamster Song

I'm in a hamster ball in a hamster wheel
in a hamster cage in an open field,
wonderin how the buffalo feel.

A styrofoam slot car, double yellow lines,
on a one way road going thirty-five,
dying to be alive.

I reached for the stars and made it to space,
and now I'm kinda stuck just floating in place
in empty air, right next to the moon
But you should see, you should see the view from here
It's all crystal blue and golden clear
I can feel it all
We're bottled waterfalls

I've been working so long in this endless maze
In an ant farm you don't count no days
and the sun don't shine, and the rain don't fall

For hours I watch from behind this big glass wall
and pray to myself that I could change it all
but the world's so big and my world's so small

I reached for the stars and made it to space,
and now I'm kinda stuck just floating in place
in empty air, right next to the moon
But you should see, you should see the view from here
It's all crystal blue and golden clear
I can feel it all
We're bottled waterfalls
