Welcome to Charlie's world
It's magic;
And here in Charlie's world
You'll see the stars. 
The moon's about a mile high
The planets passing by
And Charlie isn't crying anymore.

Come into Charlie's world
Be daring;
'Cause here in Charlie's world
You can't go far. 
Your feet will never touch the ground
And there's the constant sound
My iron prison's quiet, endless roar.

Although I'm sleeping from neck down
I'm still alive to sight and sound;
Forever sailing by machine
In my iron submarine,
This life is mine, and I wouldn't give it up
As I lie here, dreaming

<solo on verse, 8 bars.
 
This life is mine, and I wouldn't give it up
As I lie here, dreaming
   
Come into Charlie's world
Be daring;
'Cause here in Charlie's world
You can't go far. 
Your feet will never touch the ground
And there's the constant sound
My iron prison's quiet, endless roar.

Although I'm sleeping from neck down
I'm still alive to sight and sound;
I have sunshine in my heart
And i must tell you,
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive!
