Wish Me Well

Our local picture housewas showing a Batman movieYou see this guy fly up in the sky,I thought to myself, 'Why shouldn't I?'So I bought a pair of wings,went up upon a wallI was about to jump into the airwhen a guy from the street calledHe said, 'Hey wait a minute!Don't you realize the danger?What do you think you are, some kind of angel?'I considered for a minute,realized he spoke the truth.For the barbells on my eyelidsonly emphasised my youthand the sawdust in my plimsollsmeans the same to him as meBut that's neither here nor further,so I spoke considerately'Now if you understandjust what I'm trying to say,whatever you do, don't grin,you'll give the game away!'By now a crowd had gatheredand it seemed that all was lostIn the anger of the momentI had diced with death and lostIt seemed to me the time was rightso I burst into songIn the anger of the momentthe crowd began to sing alongI could not see a way outof this predicamentJust then a breeze came through the treesand up in the air I wentI must have flown a mile,or maybe it was eightThought to myself pretty soonI'd hit the Golden GatesJust then a passing birdfor no reason I could seetook a peck at my wings andthat was the end of meI went down, hit the groundfaster than the speed of soundLuckily I broke no bones onlytore my underclothes
