If I had wings i wouldn't do anything Beautiful and transcendent no I'd get my finger into everything I wanted I'd do all the beautiful things Those things you can't do Because nobody wants you to be able to do The things that make you feel good Like you can't smoke on the airplane I remember smoking on the airplane I used to love to smoke on the airplane Those were the golden days of air travel They would just open the door at the airport And you'd walk right out the tarmac And up those stairs and light a big cigarette And stick it in the ashtray And the stewardess would come along And if she was hot You can try to pick her up once I was flying From New York to DC i didn't have much time And the stewardess was smoking She was a dusky tall american beauty And I put down my tray table Snorted a gram of cocaine Till I got up my courage to say "Can I have your phone number?" And she gave me the number That was the good news The bad news was I got too Stoned and I'd lost the number The stewardess would've been better Than the cocaine I made an error in judgement But still I remember smoking on the airplane Smoking on the airplane Smoking on the airplane, everybody did it They'd gather at the back on The way to Australia And all puff up at once outside the bathroom And that's why if I had wings That would be a bad idea, hahahahaha, I guess According to everything I've been taught About the laws of Ethics and karma and good behavior Hahahahaha if I had wings, I'd go Yum, yum, yum-yum, yum-yum, yum, ow! I'd have fun if I had wings, I'd have fun Smoking on the airplane Sunlight on my wings sunlight on my wings Sunlight on my wings sunlight on my wings Sunlight on my wings sunlight on my wings (You can't do that, You can't do that) (You can't do that, You can't do that) Teenage boys used to hijack the airplane And send it to Cuba Castro would charge 20 grand The airline would get your airplane back He had a good business (You can't do that, you can't do that) It's over (You can't do that, you can't do that) It's over for the liberal democracies (You can't do that) It's over (You can't do that) Here comes the jungle (You can't do that) Sunlight on my wings sunlight on my wings Sunlight on my wings Sunlight on my wings (You can't do that) Sunlight on my wings (You can't do that) Sunlight on my wings (You can't do that) No more rock critics (You can't do that, you can't do that) No more (You can't do that) European ideas of (You can't do that) Good and bad (You can't do that) Only a vengeful (You can't do that) God does not allow smoking on the airplane (You can't do that, you can't do that) (You can't do that) There will be No revolution (You can't do that) And that's why (You can't do that) It won't be televised (You can't do that) Sunlight on my wings sunlight on my wings Sunlight on my wings sunlight on my wings Sunlight (You can't do that) Sunlight (You can't do that) Sunlight (You can't do that) Sunlight (You can't do that) if I had wings
