Hello from Inside a Shell - Of Montreal

Hello from inside a shell
You can see me because my shell is invisible
It was made especially for me
By the brilliant inventor Lecithin E.

I ride my unicycle
Downstairs to his laboratory
When I know he's there
Working on robotic aquatic bees
Perfecting his mechanical donkeys
Or running from exploding test tubes

Hello from inside a shell
You can see me because my shell is invisible
It was made especially for me
By the infamous inventor Lecithin E.

I ride my boat car
Through the rays of his reverse magnetitizer
When I'm feeling brave
Then everything I touch shoots into space
And astronauts shake their fists at us
Saying, "Be careful!"

He's promised to build us a world of our own
Far away from this one
In uncharted regions where no one will go
He's promised to build us a world of our own

We'll find an island somewhere near the North Pole
And he'll invent lots of strange new animals to inhabit it
So we won't feel alone
And we'll be happy there all covered in snow

He's promised to build us a world of our own
And here we go!
