Welcome to my little world...completely self-contained, yeah 
Your problems they will soon be gone (we soak up lots of pain), yeah 

If life is a reflecting pool--then we are like a sponge, yeah 
Absorbing the good with the bad--we soak up...soak it up 

So give me all your troubled thoughts 
And baggage you can't handle, no 
We'll gladly take it off your back (we soak up lots of pain), yeah 

(Chorus) 
Is it any wonder now-everybody goes insane 
Everybody locks the door to keep out any strangers 
Everybody's all pent up--everybody's got short fuse 
Getting ready to blow up, we live in so much danger 

Boys and girls in a line -- Come and get your big reward 
Your're not too late Just in time 
Put your hand on mine you're mine you're mine 

When everybody has gone to bed--and children are asleep, yeah 
I sit up late and watch t.v. (and soak up lots of pain), yeah 

Little junior on the bus--his notebook by his side, yeah 
He hardly ever makes a fuss--he soaks up so much pain 

We've traveled far this monkey and me--by airplane boat and train, yeah 
We're here to eat up all your sins (and soak up all your pain), yeah 

(Chorus) 

Boys and girls of every creed--religion and persuasion, nooo 
It's time to get up off your knees...we soak up...soak it up 
So open the door and let me in--don't question who I am, no 
Just shake my hand and give me your name (we soak up...soak it up...)
