jump over my shadow

i saw a woman with a monkey on her back now

i saw the flunkey's suffering on the road

let's all pray to the virgin of hysteria

let's all pretend to be quite sincere

our lives will never be the same now

too much money says look the other way

and if you manage to return somehow

i promise i will change

please don't go away

again

i jump over my shadow

to reach out to you again

i jump over my shadow

will you take me back again

i jump over my shadow

i jump over my shadow

i jump over my shadow

i jump over my shadow

big eyes on little kids with big ideas yeah

they're wanting everything that they can see

no need to work and bust your guts now

just take what you want from you and me

we want some instant deification

too much faith says look the other way

and if we don't get gratification

will we ever change

would we ever say

again

i jump over my shadow

to reach out to you again

i jump over my shadow

will you take me back again

i jump over my shadow

i jump over my shadow

i jump over my shadow

i jump over my shadow
