 The Motorplanet version of "high enough" is one of my all time favorites. And I've decided to place it on my playlist for a little while as an example of what could be made of my lyrics. My own version is rather uninspired and crude in comparison, and a bit embarrassing, I must confess. But then, I've never claimed to be a musician, so what! It's the version Holger had heard then - only to decide to create a real Rock song using the same text. The playlist can be found on my lyrics pages or on my MySpace site, the text can be found here:

pot smokers become giggly
tend to do stupid things
some always become horny
others grow themselves wings


they are high enough to laugh
they are high enough to cry
they are high enough to jump - and fly

 

young lovers climbed the hills
he fumbled at her bra
enjoying the first time's thrills
they marvelled at the stars

 

they were far enough away
they were close enough to the sky
they were high enough to jump - and fly

 

young banker'd got a hot tip
put all his means at stake
this time it was the bears
he noted it too late

 

he winced of desperation
he'd really lost it all
got up the highest building
preparing for the fall


it was high enough to fear
it was high enough to try
it was high enough to jump - and die
