Expecting to Fly Songtext
von 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 everyone grows dim
We need a mirror to reflect
Upon this mess we′re in
And we sing

Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again


Oh, 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
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again

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 better kiss your friends goodbye

Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again


Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again
Your happy day is here again

(We′re going down)
Your happy day is here again
(We′re going down)
Your happy day is here again
(We're going down)
Your happy day is here again
(We′re going down)
Your happy day is here again

(We're going down)
Your happy day is here again
(We′re going down)
Your happy day is here again
(We're going down)
Your happy day is here again
(We′re going down)
Your happy day is here again
