Oingo Boingo - Head In The Clouds Lyrics

I think this song might be about a bum who wants to be with a high-end stripper/prostitute? "You can look if you want, but don't touch
'Cause the merchandise is worth so much" sounds like something a prostitute would say, plus the swaggery mood of the song makes it sound like a soul singer should be singing it!

it's rick.hentai on Instagram It’s about being tied to commercialism

@Oingo Boingo Tapes ok then

it's rick.hentai on Instagram But also it could be whatever it means to you!

Head in the clouds
Feet on the ground
Eyes big and blue
Heart can't be found

You can look if you want, but don't touch
'Cause the merchandise is worth so much
You can look if you want, but don't touch
Baby!

Head in the clouds
Lost in a dream
Try to resist
Can't hardly see

Only one look, or perhaps a caress
I melt just like [_____]
[____] myself as I go through the moves
Just like a puppet, dancing on a string
I [______]

Head in the clouds
Lost in a dream
Try to resist
Can't hardly see

You can look if you want, but don't touch
'Cause the merchandise is worth so much
You can look if you want, but don't touch
Baby!

Head in the clouds...

I think it's "I melt just like clay in your hands" and "...dancing on a string, at your command" but I've got no ideas for the middle one!

oh! maybe twisting?

1st blank is "clay in her hands", 2nd blank is either "adjusting" or "twisting", and the 3rd is something to do with commands. Probably "I obey my commands" or something guessing by the the whole "puppet on a string" idea in the previous verse.

I used to think I had heard all the unreleased material from Oingo Boingo... D: This is new for me. Thanks for uploading this!
