Grounded (Let Imagination Run)

I let imagination run I let him run for awhile I let him run so much I think he ran wild First it was a crocodile that stretched for miles With huge yellow eyes and a 1,000 tooth smile He gave a great chase around the kitchen Isle But it was him not me who broke the kitchen tile Imagination ran into the living room Where I ran to find no floor in there I had no fear when a rope appeared So i could swing to anywhere Little did I know that the rope is a curtain and the curtain could tear So me and imagination had to run out of there So we ran into a bedroom where an octopus was at play I thought to myself this guy might just stay So I jumped to wrestle against his many legs thought i would last all day After I won i realized i trashed the bed that my mom just made So here I am sitting my imagination outside on an adventure to the moon Imagination will come back and all to soon Maybe it will take me on a giant balloon, or let my ride typhoon, or ride the milky way on a silver spoon But for now im just sitting imagination got me grounded to my room
