Kite lyrics
«Come up and be a kite…»
Beelzebub is aching in my belly-o!
My feet are heavy and I'm rooting in my wellios.
And I want to get away and go
From all these mirror windows.
I look at eye level, it isn't good enough,
And then I find out, when I take a good look up.
There's a hole in the sky with a big eyeball,
Calling me:
«Come up and be a kite…
And fly a diamond night.
A diamond kite, a diamond kite!
Ooh, 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 kite…»
I feel a rush along my body like a bullet.
I'm 2D, after a push and pull feeling.
And I want to get back to safe home:
I love the homeland dome.
I got no limbs, 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 back on the ground,
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!
Ooh, 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! Night!
Come up and be a kite…
Come up and be a kite!»

"You can't go onstage and simper, and be timid and shy. You've got to be big and strong and give your audience everything you've got, reveal your emotions, be romantic, transport them into another world, so they're in tune with you" (KB, 1980)
