InMyRoom

I've often heard

Though it sounds absurd

There's a certain kind of person

Who just to get a thrill

Walks through the desert just for something to do

Flies through the skies with no parachute

Some folks climb to the highest mountain

Other folks bathe in Italian fountains

Swim to the icy polar caps

Wearing nothing but shorts and a plastic cap

But I know a place where I can do all that

In my room I have a stack of books

Where worlds unfold if I just look

In my room I can go anywhere

Just close my door and I am there

I can fight a ninja on my bed

All I have to do is just knock him on the head

There's nothing I can't do

In my room

Some folks drag themselves to Timbuktu

Just to see a monkey wearing funny shoes

Some folks float all the way to China

For wonton soup in a Hong Kong diner

They take lessons to be fluent in mouse

Or go to Spain to learn to sew a blouse

Well I can do all that without leaving my house

In my room I have a stack of books

Where worlds unfold if I just look

In my room I can go anywhere

Just close my door and I am there

I can have Christmas in June

Or build a rocket and walk on the moon

I can do what I want to

In my room

In my room - my lamp becomes an Eiffle Tower

In my room - my dog wears a cape and has special powers

In my room - I spend hours and hours

Deep in the jungle playing with all the boys and girls

In my room I have a stack of books

Where worlds unfold if I just look

In my room I can go anywhere

Just close my door and I am there

I can sneak around like a crafty raccoon

Give me some pots and I'll play you a tune

There's nothing I can't do

In my room

There's nothing I can't do

In my room
