Pop Fly

Coach has put me in the outfield

Do I even need to mention

It's my job to catch the ball and

More important, pay attention

To the pitcher or the batter?

Is it the former or the latter?

Does it even really matter?

When there are dandelions grown along the fence

And there's cotton candy clouds that look like elephants

And that squirrel up in the tree's looking down at me

Then back up at the sky

Is it a bird or a plane?

Should I pray for some rain

Or hope that it's just a helicopter?

Suddenly, I'm seized by a horrible disease

Someone, please, someone, please

Call my family doctor

'Cause it's a

Pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop

P-p-p-p-p-pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop fly, pop fly

Pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop

P-p-p-p-p-pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop fly, pop fly

(Pop, pop, pop, pop)

Oh, it's nothing, I'm feeling better

Thought it was round and made of leather

I could really use a snowcone

Hope my baseball cover isn't blown

We're in the sixth or seventh inning

I don't know if we're even winning

If it's over or just beginning

When there are weeping willow trees outside the shady stadium

And there's giant bumblebees collecting honey for their homes

And that squirrel up in the tree's looking down at me

Then back up at the sky

Is it a bird or a plane?

Should I pray for some rain

Or hope that it's just a helicopter?

Suddenly, I'm seized by a horrible disease

Someone, please, someone, please

Call my family doctor

'Cause it's a

Pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop

P-p-p-p-p-pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop fly, pop fly

Pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop

P-p-p-p-p-pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop fly, pop fly

(Pop, pop, pop, pop) Fly

I would rather lie

Anywhere but here

Underneath this ball

As it falls

I'm all alone here, in the outfield

Do I even need to mention

That I caught the

Pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop

P-p-p-p-p-pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop fly, pop fly?

Pop, p-p-p-p-p-pop
