I've Got Some Falling to Do |
In an airplane, I was flying. |
Just a flight attendant guy. |
I can be clumsy, and I stumbled |
Out the door, into the sky. |
Now I am falling through the air. |
Wind and regret flow through my hair. |
All I can do right now is stare down at the ocean. |
Suddenly, there’s a ring in my cell phone. |
I pick it up. |
It’s the Angel of Death, and he says «Wazzup?» |
I say, «What is it this time?» |
And he’s like «Well, hello, goodbye, I’ll see you in Hell.» |
He can be like that sometimes, he’s such a nut. |
So I snicker and say, «I'd love to, but |
Gravity’s calling, I’ve got some falling to do.» |
I’m in a state of shock, but it’s nothing new. |
I guess it all depends on your point of view. |
It’s true. |
This is boring… Yes, I’m falling, |
But it’s taking quite a while. |
My destination is impending. |
Might as well go out in style. |
I put my arms out to the skies, |
Whistle a tune and close my eyes, |
Trying to briefly realize perpetual motion. |
Suddenly, giant tentacles rise from the open sea, |
And with total precision they lasso me. |
It’s a monstrous squid and he saved my life, |
But I am too freaked out to be nice. |
So I tell him the truth, that I’d rather fall. |
No offense but at least it’s predictable. |
Gotta stop stalling, I’ve got some falling to do. |
I’m probably gonna die, but it’s nothing new. |
I guess it all depends on your point of view. |
It’s true. |
