Sit yourself down,
And think of what you'd like to do today.
Then take a look around
And if the sky kind of looks a little grey
Just take a hook on a dream
Watch your cares will stop running
Your smile won't stop coming when you
Take a mind excursion
It's just a slight diversion
You might come out a winner
In a bullfight in Spain
Paint your face like an injun.
Dance with some rain
Get on your magic carpet
Cause nothing can stop it
No--
Open up your eyes
Excitement would like to be your friend
Try it on for size
It may lead you to the rainbow's end
You got a ticket to fly
And while the sun's getting brighter
Your head's getting lighter when you
Take a mind excursion
It's just a slight diversion
You may drive out your window
In your own private car
Watch the whole world go rolling
From the top of a star
Get on your magic carpet
Cause nothing can stop it
Oh--
Take a mind excursion
It's just a slight diversion
You can
Take a mind excursion
It's just a slight diversion (fadeout)
And think of what you'd like to do today.
Then take a look around
And if the sky kind of looks a little grey
Just take a hook on a dream
Watch your cares will stop running
Your smile won't stop coming when you
Take a mind excursion
It's just a slight diversion
You might come out a winner
In a bullfight in Spain
Paint your face like an injun.
Dance with some rain
Get on your magic carpet
Cause nothing can stop it
No--
Open up your eyes
Excitement would like to be your friend
Try it on for size

And while the sun's getting brighter
Your head's getting lighter when you

Watch the whole world go rolling

Get on your magic carpet

Take a mind excursion
