lyrics

ONWARD AEROPUERTO

A big shark came to my house
we made brunch and sang songs.
He showed his teeth
my mind went wild helicopters.

That the story doesn't end well
well, I don't have to write a book to tell.
But I'll sing: the mind's a fragile thing.
When dreams run I won't give up.
Onward aeropuerto.

I shook my home like a shoebox
a tumbling kaleidoscope.
I saw a light, the chips fell down
there was no turning back.

The rooms are bright
the traffic loud, rent's going up
I'm safe not proud.
So I'll sing: home's a fragile thing.
When dreams run I won't give up.
Onward aeropuerto.

What does not kill you makes you stronger.
Even contamination can make you live longer.
Take a canary into a coal mine,
as long as you hear singing, you know you will be fine.

This street has changed, the city changed
I am changed and rearranged.
My hair is gray, I'm here to stay one battleship
one word one step one song one crime
one slip one fall one find at a time.
So I'll sing: life's a fragile thing.
When dreams run I won't give up.
Onward aeropuerto.
