Fly

seventy days to cross the ocean

seventy nights where no one's gonna hear me fall

Freddie Mercury, i've sometimes wished

i'd never been born at all (that's right)

i remain unphotographed, yeah

i don't exaggerate my intelligence

i might turn a broom into a tree

but i'll never be one of them (that's right)

i fly-y-y-y-y-y

cause there's no why in getting beaten up by

a guy-y-y-y-y-y

who cries before he fights

i don't want them to see me like this

the way they like to kick people when they're down

you said, 'please stop worrying about this'

'they stop kicking once you're down' (that's right)

there's Mistaken Point, Newfoundland

there's Moonbeam Ontari-ari-o

there are places i've never been

and always wanted to go (that's right)

fly-y-y-y-y

cause woe betide a guy who just lives to fight

fly-y-y-y-y-y

love is to try die trying

fly-y-y, yeah that's right

fly-y-y-y, yeah that's right

try-y-y-y

love is to try die trying

coastline rising out of the ocean

coastline rises like a pair of glowing thighs

there's something down deep inside me says

where you been all my life

fly-y-y-y-y-y

turn your back, get your face in the sky

fly-y-y-y-y-y

love is to try die trying

try-y-y-y-y

left and right, across your mind

try-y-y-y-y

love is to try and die trying
