Brian Can’t Fly (Extended 1)

Chorus

Brian can't fly that airplane

Wings on the gravel, dreams in the slow lane

He'll turn the key, but it just won't rise

Laughing at the clouds under open sky

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh, he's grounded here

Oh oh oh, no endless clear

Verse 2

Ran down the checklist, nothing felt right

Watched one take off, squinted at the height

Neighbors all wave, they know the tale

Down on the runway, he's chasing a snail

Pre-Chorus

Maybe he'll learn one of these days

But today his boots keep finding clay

Chorus

Brian can't fly that airplane

Wings on the gravel, dreams in the slow lane

He'll turn the key, but it just won't rise

Laughing at the clouds under open sky

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh, he's grounded here

Oh oh oh, no endless clear

Bridge

But he knows every twist in the gravel road

Dreams big enough to lighten the load

Someday he swears he'll get off the ground

Til then he’s king of this farming town

Chorus

Brian can't fly that airplane

Wings on the gravel, dreams in the slow lane

He'll turn the key, but it just won't rise

Laughing at the clouds under open sky

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh, he's grounded here

Oh oh oh, but hope never disappears

Outro

Maybe one day it's up he goes

Friends all cheerin as the small plane rolls

But for now he's dreamin with dust on his shoes

Smiling where the morning sun breaks through

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh, still standing tall

Oh oh oh, can't catch him at all
