Too High

Stevie Wonder

Dodo do do do dodo

Do do dodo do dodo

Dodo dodo do do

Dodo do do do dodo

Do do do do dodo do

Dodo dodo dodo

I'm too high

I'm too high

But I ain't touched the sky

I'm too high

I'm too high

But I ain't touched the sky

She's a girl in a dream

She sees a four eyed cartoon monster on the T.V. screen

She takes another puff and says ";It's a crazy scene";

That red is green

And she's a tangerine

I'm too high

I'm too high

But I ain't left the ground

I'm too high

I'm too high

I hope I never ever come down

She's the girl in her life

But her world's a superficial paradise

She had a chance to make it big more than once or twice

But no dice

She wasn't very niceOoh

Dodo do do do dodo

Do do dodo do dodo

Do do do do do do

Dodo do do do dodo

Do do dodo do dodo

Dodo dodo

Dodo dodo

Dodo dodo

I'm too high

I'm too high

I can't ever touch the sky

I'm too high

I'm so high

I feel like I'm about to die

She's a girl of the past

I guess that I got to her at last

A did you hear the news about the girl today

She passed away

What did her friend say

They said she's too high

Too high

Can't hang around anyway...

Dodo do do do dodo

Do do dodo do dodo

do...do...do...

do...do...do...

do...
