The Toadies – Straight Up lyrics
I'm not a good team player
she said with a smile
that made me want to believe her
she said "tell me about the world that you see"
alright dear
everything you want is here
everything you want right here
everything's in the sound of my voice
I haven't thought much of her since
turn her face into innocence!
i'm scared
i feel like a school child
so i light a match and I drop it in the dry grass
??do a thing that hurt my hand??
???????
I dreamed I could fly like a rocket man
in a fighter jet..??
i dreamed i could fly like superman
straight up!
straight up!
When the flames are gone
?and the church is gone?
I take her there and brag about what I've done
it makes her laugh
and we danced in the ashes
I said "everything you want is here"
everything you want right here
everything's in the sound of my voice
I dreamed I could fly like a rocket man
and a fighter jet ??
I dreamed I could fly like superman
I dreamed I could fly, yeah, straight up
??if I was a boy I'd be a hero??
if he only had the right plan
he took it upon himself to find out
exactly what a hero meant
