Expecting to Fly - Dick Johnson, Headless Chickens

Hello birthday person

Your time has come again

This whole house is swinging like a monkey on a chain

And the champagne pops like rifle shots as evry one grows dim

We need a mirror to reflect upon this mess we’re in

And we sing

Your happy day is here again x4

Well hello birthday person

I heard that you were thin

So I got you some religion to cuddle to your skin

And your body makes you nervous

About sagging mental health

If I was you I’d trade you in and find somebody else

And we sing

Your happy day is here again x8

And this window looks out on the sea

And there’s nothing between you and me

Well I see you’re expecting to fly

Well you know the world won’t catch you

So you’d better kiss your friends goodbye

Your happy day is here again x8

Your happy day is here again x11

We’re going down x7
