Higher and Higher

Blasting, billowing, bursting forth

With the power of ten billion butterfly sneezes

Man, with his flaming pyre

Has conquered the wayward breezes

Climbing to tranquility, far above the clouds

Conceiving the heavens, clear of misty shroud

Higher and higher

Now we've learned to play with fire

We go higher and higher and higher

Vast vision must improve our sight

Perhaps at last we'll see an end

To our own endless blight

And the beginning of the free

Climb to tranquility, finding its real worth

Conceiving the heaven, flourishing on earth

Higher and higher

Now we've learned to play with fire

We go higher and higher and higher
