Ouch! I'm stubbing my toes on moonbeams
Tripping on dreams, search fallin' into the sky
Watching the Milky Way pour by
Looking the man in the moon in the eye
I'm out of this world.

Picking up Saturns' rings on my fingers
Playing pinball with Jupiter's moons
O Sole Mio down Mars' canals
I never get lonely, the stars are my pals
I'm out of this world.

Out of this world, when you wish
Your wishes all come true.
I was halfway to Venus, dreaming of Maggie
Remembering her eyes, soft and blue
I remembered a love oh so true
I thought, "Wow, I wish she were with me now."

Poof! There she is floating beside me
Blinking her eyes wondering what's going on
She said, "Last thing I knew I was sleeping in bed.
Can you tell me where I am instead?" and I said
"Sure, you're out of this world."
