Blasting, billowing, bursting forth
  With the power of ten billion butterfly sneezes
  Man with his flaming pyre
  Has conquered the wayward breezes
  Climbing to tranquility
  Far above the cloud
  Conceiving the heavens
  Clear of misty shroud
    Higher and higher
  Now we've learned to play with fire
  Go higher and higher and higher
    Vast vision must improve our sight
  Perhaps at last we'll see and end
  To our own endless blight
  And the beginning of the free
  Climb to tranquility
  Finding it's real worth
  Conceiving the heavens
  Florishing on earth
    Higher and higher
  Now we've learned to play with fire
  Go higher and higher and higher
