So Fly

(album: Generation Gaming XXII: She Wants The D-Pad - 2021)

You're so fly
So fly
You're so fly
So fly

See dots in the sky
Is it a bird, or a plane, or a drop in my oxygen supply?
When you're no longer grounded you've got to wonder why
Meditate while you can and take the option to fly

My fear of flying's not so much a fear of dying
As a fear of diving through the sky inside a tube and hearing crying
Knowing I'm going down, nowhere to throw in the towel
So alone though I'm surrounded, no one else is going to hell
So I'm bound to sit alert like extroverts at show and tell
Motormouthing till we're grounded, homeward bound, safe and sound
But the more I have to travel the less I have to fight that battle
Despite the fact the chance is higher that I'll crash, oh well

I've lived well, I've see a few sights
And if I'd checked my email a bit more frequently I would've been on Newsnight
But why lose my snooze time viewing behind the few time I didn't do right
Or choose solutions you might?

See dots in the sky
Is it a bird, or a plane, or a drop in my oxygen supply?
When you're no longer grounded you've got to wonder why
Meditate while you can and take the option to fly

You're so fly
(Is it a bird, or a plane, or a drop in my oxygen supply?)
So fly
(Meditate while you can and take the option to fly)

This airline claims to do its best but I'm not too impressed
The dude next to me is retching with a fluey chest
I'm truly blessed but I still take steps to improve these specs
Decked in my pjs for comfort, forget being fully dressed
Who would guess I'd do a test flirting with the stewardess?
It seemed to work and she's diverting my attention to her breasts
Does this mean I could lead it further or is she just working
Me into a sweat preceding feelings I'd regret?
With deeper expertise this'd be easy, I suspect
I'm not a frequent flyer, hardly ever been inside a jet
Now I'm a travel romantic, international transatlantic
And they're practically the same thing but that's just semantics

See dots in the sky
Is it a bird, or a plane, or a drop in my oxygen supply?
When you're no longer grounded you've got to wonder why
Meditate while you can and take the option to fly

Tiny little twinkles flare into toy cars
I hope the landing's smoother than the second Die Hard
Dan don't want his life charred, man's no Django Reinhardt
I apologize, that was a lighthearted jibe on my part
It's unlikely a tiny slice of the pie chart
But it still seems as if survival is a fine art
Arriving brings an ecstasy release and I'm a Skylark
Who learn the procedure in the safety leaflet by heart
But when you float in open seas there'll be no lifeguard
So today it's open season for these great white sharks
I warned you well, try to chill, avoid the jaws of hell
Sit back and enjoy three films and I'm in California, wow

See dots in the sky
Is it a bird, or a plane, or a drop in my oxygen supply?
When you're no longer grounded you've got to wonder why
Meditate while you can and take the option to fly

You're so fly
So fly
You're so fly
So fly
