Eighth Wonder Lyrics

Extra clever earthbound spirit
Ghost in the form of a mongoose
And I have hands and I have feet
I'll never die, I am a freak
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall
I know, I might be small but I am a freak
Thou wilt never know what I am
I am the fifth dimension and I will split the atom
And if you see me, you're paralyzed
Pillar of salt, you're mummified
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall
I know, I might be small but I am the eighth wonder
And I was born 1852
And I was born in India
And I shall haunt like the Buggane
With such weird noise and clanking chains
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall
I know, I might be small but I am a freak
I say "vanished" to underground
Jim, let me go, I watch like hell
And I have hands, and I have feet
I'll never die, I am a freak
Hello, I'm here, I'm living in the wall
I know, I might be small, but I am the eighth wonder
Eighth wonder of the world
You'll never get to see
What in the name of god can I be?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

It's about a myth of gef the talking mongoose. The lyrics are practically quotes of what he 'said'
