[Verse 1]
Wind blowin' through my hair
Everybody tellin' me there's nowhere like home
Oh no, mmm

There's somewhere else for me
I need to take the opportunity and go
And go, yeah

It's near, not too far
And when I look up to the stars
I wanna be, I wanna be like they are
Ohh-ohh-oh

[Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta get of Kansas (Gotta get out)
And sometimes you gotta take your chances (To find the answers)
'Cause no one ever made it just waitin' around
For the big fifteen minutes in the two-bit town
One thing I know is crystal clear
I gotta get out of here

[Verse 2]
I know the sound of a whole new crowd
While I whisper when I want to sing out loud
Let me here you say yeah yeah (yeah, yeah)
I'm on land, but I can fly
Something in my heart saying I was meant to shine
Like a diamond in the sky
[Bridge]
I wanna see my name in lights
And someone to buy the movie rights
I wanna hear my music come to life
Ahhh

[Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta get of Kansas (Gotta get out)
And sometimes you gotta take your chances (To find the answers)
'Cause no one ever made it just waitin' around
For the big fifteen minutes in the two-bit town
One thing I know is crystal clear
I gotta get out of here

[Outro]
Said I gotta get outta here
Mmhmm
I gotta get outta here
