All the way back in history
How the girl thinks is a mystery
We spend our lives cruising the bars
The Venus girls and the men from Mars
So in all this time did you ever think do the girls sees red
When a man sees pink?
And if your best lovin’ is in the past
‘Cause somewhere slow is nowhere fast
You’re out of your head (Yeah)
So outta your head (Yeah)
Stay outta your head (Yeah)
You better get with it ’cause you’re so without it
You’re outta your head (Yeah)
So out of your head (Yeah)
Stay outta your head
Yeah, yeah
Somewhere, somewhere underneath the rainbow
Bricka bracka firecracker sis boom bah
Here comes trouble in a push-up bra
Your style is sharp as a carpet tack
But you’re out of your box and you’re way off track
You can moderate on a mental binge
Your catastrophe’s on a lunatic fringe
It’s good for the gander, it’s tit for tat
You say it’s all good but it’s more than that
You’re out of your head (Yeah)
So outta your head (Yeah)
Stay outta your head (Yeah)
You better get with it ’cause you’re so without it
You’re out of your head (Yeah)
So outta your head (Yeah)
Stay outta your head, yeah
So in all this time did you ever think think think think?
You’re out of your head (Yeah)
So outta your head (Yeah)
Stay outta your head (Yeah)
You better get with it ’cause you’re so without it
You’re outta your head (Yeah)
So outta your head (Yeah)
Stay outta your head
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Yeah)
Stay outta your head (Yeah)
Stay outta your head
You better get with it ’cause you’re so without it
You’re outta your head (Yeah)
So outta your head (Yeah)
Stay outta your head
Somewhere, somewhere underneath the rainbow
Somewhere, somewhere underneath the rainbow
Somewhere, somewhere underneath the rainbow
