I am the bird that soars in the sky

You know that but so do I

I’m a majestic creature

Chic and fast are my features

There’s more to me than just being fun

I’ve got a mind that’s ready to stun

I am the bird that soars in the sky

Try to catch me if you dare to try

I say what I think, but think before I say

It really happens, in a profound way

My wings will never let me down

As I fly and fly, all above town

I am the bird that soars in the sky

You know that and so do I
