Lyrics Fly My Pretties - Fly My Pretties, Barnaby Weir

Fly My Pretties

Well, Wellington’s a small town
But it packs a lotta punch
There’s talent oozing from the walls
That eat ideas for lunch
It can get a little claustrophobic
Iven if you try, fly, my pretties, fly
Well, I reckon this town’s brilliant
In lots of different ways
But it doesn’t have the money
Or the glamor of L.A.
I’m sure one day you’ll make it in
The stars shining bright
If you have to go, then fly
Fly away
As long as you come back some day
Fly away
Hope to see you round some day
Well I’ve lived here my whole life
And sure the living’s sweet
But what I want’s the whole world
Just to listen to my beats
The only way to do this
Is to travel far and wide
So if you to go, then fly
They say that there’s a brain drain
I reckon that it’s true
To cruising offshore
Just to make a buck or two
It’s a little sad that we
Can’t do it alright here
But if you have to go
Fly away
As long as you come back some day
Fly away
Hope to see you round some day
