Story Behind The Song
The first line sent me on a little journey-of-the-mind: "There's something goin' on in your little corner of Paradise" ... oh, yeah.

Lyrics
There's something goin' on in your little corner of Paradise
Its that crack in the wall, its that hole in the ice
You pick yourself up, take good look around
There's nothin' to see and ya can't hear a sound ...
(But)Oh, no, you can't ignore this feeling
Oh no, you can't ignore this feeling.
Standin' on the edge, your just a little uncomfortable
There's six-billion more in a house gettin' full
Ya pick yourself up, take a look out this window
Its comin' down fast and yer movin' too slow ...
Oh no, youcan't ignore this feeling (repeat)
Br: Maybe you'll run to the edge of the world
Maybe you'll fly to the other side
May as well stay where you are 'cause there's no place left to hide!
There's something goin' on in your little corner of Paradise
Its that crack in the wall, its that hole in the ice
You pick yourself up, take good look around
Tell me, what do you see? Now, what have you found?
Oh no, you can't ignore this feeling (repeats to end)
