Or I can take you so high that you're never gonna wanna come down
Drop the pilot, try my balloon
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
Drop the mahout I'm the easy rider
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle
Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
I said
Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
