I Can't Fly Lyrics

I…I can’t fly
Just look at me
It ain’t even a god damn possibility

Oh and I…I know that Saturdays, they are a bust
They’re over when you wake up
And immediately you’re drunk

Oh I…oh I love so she can break my heart
Love’s over when it’s ending
But it’s ending from the start

Oh and I [mm-mm]…I can’t fly
Just look at me
It ain’t even a god damn possibility

Oh but when I was younger
Oh those souls, they seemed so real
But now I’m just a little bit
[Older!]
Oh, and now I’m just a little bit
[Older!]
And I know, Lord I know, that they lie

Oh I…I know parties, they are a drag
The girls all think you’re no good
When you want them so bad

Oh and I…I can’t fly
Just look at me
It ain’t even a god damn possibility

But when I was younger
Those souls seemed so real
But now I’m just a little bit
[Older!]
And now I’m just a little bit
[Wiser! [Older!]]
And I know, Lord I know, that they lie

Oh why do they do it?
Oh why do they lie?
Oh and why do I keep asking myself and wondering why?
When I know that they thought that it was true
Ooohh, they thought it was true

Oh why do they do it?
Oh why do the lie?
Oh and why do I keep asking myself and wondering why?
When I know that they thought it was true

i LOVEEE this song i think this might be a little bit better version of the lyrics:

I…I can’t fly Just look at me It ain’t even a goddamn possibility

Oh and I…I know that Saturdays, they are a bust They’re over when you wake up And immediately you’re drunk

Oh and I…I know that parties, they are a drag The girls all think you’re no good but you want them so badly

Oh and I…I can’t fly Just look at me Ain’t even a god damn possibility

Oh, but when I was younger those souls, you know they seemed so real But now I’m just a little bit [Older!] Oh, and now I’m just a little bit [Wiser!] And I know, Lord I know, i know that they lied to me yes they did!

Oh I…oh I love so she can break my heart Love’s over when it’s ending But it’s ending from the start

Oh and I…I can’t fly man Just look at me It ain’t even a goddamn possibility

But when I was younger Those souls you know they seemed so pretty But now I’m just a little bit [Older!] And now I’m just a little bit [Wiser!] And I know, Lord I know, I know that they lied to me Yes they did!

Oh why do they do it? Oh why do they lie? Oh and why do I keep asking myself and wondering why? When I know that they thought that it was true Ooohh, they thought it was true

Oh and why, why do they do it? Oh and why, why do the lie? Oh and why do I keep asking myself and wondering why? When I know that they thought that it was true

i'm going to listen to the song again and edit this, but the order of most of what you put up is incorrect, so i won't TOTALLY be using what you have posted. maybe you have a live version? i know i transcribed mine from the original album version, sooo.... anyway, thanks for pointing out some errors.
