Lyrics

I wish I could fly
Go diving for pearls
Swim over the mountain
Bring peace to the world
And land on your shoulder
In a miniature size
Climb into your head
And look through your eyes

I wish I was doing this
I wish I was doing this and that
I wish I could fly

Never set down
In this dusty old groove
You stay there forever
If you make a wrong move

I wish I was doing this
I wish I was doing this and that
I wish I could fly
I wish I could flyyyyy
Flyyyyy
Flyyyyy

I wish I could fly
And set myself free
From misinformation
That you’re feeding to me
Upside down in
I’m sick of your lies
You call it freedom
But it’s just fries

I wish I was doing this
I wish I was doing this and that
I wish I could fly
I wish I could flyyyyy
Flyyyyy
Flyyyyy

What can you say?
What can you do?
Listening to people
That don’t listen to you
You’re thinking on someone
That isn’t your size
Things will be different
When I can fly

I wish I was doing this
I wish I was doing this and that
I wish I could flyyyyyyyy
Yes
