and he's on the roof

poised unglued

the flight ahead

he's on the roof

he smiles unmoved

he holds his breath

and lifts his head

and spreads his wings



it's not far now

i found the sure way

to the ground



he's off the roof

he came unglued

he turns his head

and he's off the roof

he came unglued

he's thrilled to death



it's not far now

i found the sure way

to the ground

to the ground

he's coming down



his feathers melt away

the sun was out today

his feathers melt away

but he seemed quite ok

his feathers melt away

we've all seen better days
