Fabulous Flying Machines Lyrics

Mama says it's a big scary world

I will bind you down here by my side

Daddy says they don't think like us

I will build a brick wall and we'll hide, so we hide

But the first time I blew bubbles I knew

My eyes filled with wonder

Over the wall they flew

All those fabulous flying machines

I drew great big propellers, bright green umbrellas

Seeking the freedom of much lighter beings

Those fabulous flying machines

Mama says there's no use in dreaming

Look where that got me, you'll see

Daddy says they don't understand us

I'll buy some more guns, keep us free, are we free?

But if I sit still, let the chatter slow down

I can soar off to Africa, look, South America now

All these fabulous flying machines

Wright and DaVinci, Saint-Exupéry

Seeking the weightlessness found in my dreams

These fabulous flying machines

All these fabulous flying machines

Can take us to places we've never seen

Where people are different just like you and me

All these fabulous flying machines

These fabulous flying machines
