You say you're going up to higher ground, 
You say you're going up to higher ground, 
To higher ground
I don't think your hypothesis is very sound, 
I don't think your hypothesis is very sound, 
Is very sound

You don't mind the nails in your hands, 
I prefer the needles in my back, 
In my back

If I could just make one suggestion, 
Perhaps start with experimentation, 
With experimentation
