I had an original Odessa album, totally unopened.
I named my puppy Odessa in 1979 and called her Odie.
My cat was named Shenendora. Name THAT tune!
Just my dog and I at the edge of the universe.
Well, I didn’t wanna bring her and I know it’ll make her worse.
Now I look out on forever
and it must be nice down there,
and they call me Shenendora in the air.
Well, I’m ten feet tall, but I’m only three feet wide,
and I live inside an ocean that flows on the other side.
If I came back down tomorrow,
would it all be far too soon?
And it looks like it’s gonna be a lovely afternoon.
I thought that I was going home,
and all the way I kept on praying.
I couldn’t stop to turn around,
well, here I am and here I’m staying.
It’s been my longest journey and I’ve come through the black of night.
I was tired and hungry when I saw your distant light.
Well, I know this may sound crazy,
but I’m sure I got here first.
I’m just me, Shenendora, at the edge of the universe.
I thought that I was going home,
and all the way I kept on praying.

Now I look out on forever
and it must be nice down there,
and they call me Shenendora in the air.
At the edge of the universe...
Just my dog and I at the edge of the universe.
Well, I didn’t wanna bring her and I know it’ll make her worse.
