Parachute Jumper (Single)
Lyrics
Parachute Jumper
Hey Mom I'm a parachute jumperHigh over the power lines
Do what we have to to get by
I'm here with a first rate regiment
But lousy machinery
Once more to make you proud of me
Was this a feeling that you couldn't say
Were you trying to make it on your own
Please
And what did you expect to find
Some kind of miracle
It's not enough
Surprise what a delicate subject
Hip-hip for uranium
We've fashioned quite a cozy home
Into a bomb
Here's one for the Colbert Nation
Here's one for the satellites
Here's one for all those lonely nights
Is there a reason that you couldn't stay
Were you trying to make it on your own
Please
All it does is put us against a wall
All it does is put us against a wall
All it does is put us against a wall
And don't we all feel
Fine
(Show them in
Next please)
Alright sing it
Already
Stand tall would you
Stand ready to fall
Touché would you please please touch me
He's out of line out of line out of line
He's too scared (he’s too scared)
He's too cheeky (so pretty)
He's all smiles while he's out selling us all
Touché would you please please touch me
He's out of line out of line to the back of the line
Hey Mom I'm the parachute jumper
Caught here in the power lines
I tried my best to stay alive
Goodbye to the ones forever lost
Goodbye to the ones we lose
Maybe I'll make the evening news
All it does is put us against a wall
All it does is put us against a wall
All it does is put us against a wall
But no we won't roll over
'Til it's over baby
All it does is put us against a wall
All it does is put us against a wall
(My baby)
All it does is put us against a wall
And don't we all feel
Loved
