Higher Than High (Dedicated to Sylvester Stewart)

(Verse 1:)
The same thing that makes you laugh can make you cry
The same food you eat to live can make you die
The same thing you thought was in could be out
The same thing that makes you scream can make you shout

(Chorus:)
Higher than high, oh
Higher than high
No coming down, no coming down (sing)
Higher than high
Higher than high
Ooh Mother Nature, Mother Nature
Hit me…

(Verse 2:)
The same thing that turns you on can turn you off
The same thing that makes you hard can make you soft
The same thing you thought was wrong could be right
The same words you speak for peace could start a fight, start a fight
(Same) The same thing that brings you down can make you high

(Chorus:)
Higher than high, oh
Higher than high
No coming down, no coming down (sing)
Higher than high
Higher than high
Ooh Mother Nature
Sing it with me
I’m higher than high

(Bridge:)
Everybody get up (strut your stuff)
Everybody get loose (cook your goose)
Everybody get down (oh)
We’re going higher than high
Higher than high
OOOH

Higher than high

Higher than high, oh
Higher than high
No coming down, no coming down (sing)
Higher than high
Higher than high
Ooh Mother Nature, Mother Nature
Higher!

I’m higher than high
I, you, he, she, we gotta sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it
Funky, funky, funky… (I’m higher than high)

I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends (Higher!)
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends (Higher!)
I’m gonna get by with a little help from my friends (Higher!)
I’m gonna go…(Higher!) Higher than high

Higher than high, oh
Higher than high
No coming down, no coming down (sing)
Higher than high
Higher than high
Ooh Mother Nature, Mother Nature
Hit me…

(Outro:)
Don’t care how high you’re takin’ me (Higher than high, higher than high)
Higher than high I wanna be (repeat 4 times to fade)
