Bye bye Shanghai Bye bye Shanghai Bye bye Shanghai Grow wings and fly Let's get real high Let's get real high Let's get real high Transcend this life I wanna drink from the beehive I wanna jump from the tight wire Like a moth into a fire I'm gonna burn up on the pyre Well, it's love at first sight Moonstruck on this night Sing a swan song on the lyre and fly away one last time Yeah When I first saw you lying there in wait With your unearthed buried smile, I sing to my duckling Yes, you must learn to use your wings But it is I that will be taught by you to fly The distorted view from my misty window has a thin ray of light that's got a peaking crescendo The moon is a clock face that's tick, tick, ticking with a crooked smile We're all in the rat race Together we go the extra mile Knock the surrounding buildings down I'm calling out for help I'm shedding my skin like a snake slithering You gotta stop the overwhelming self-doubt Catch me dancing in the summer rain with my tongue out
