The Cape Lyrics
Eight years old with flour sack cape <br />
<br />
Tied all around his neck <br />
<br />
He climbed up on the garage <br />
<br />
Figurinwhat the heck <br />
<br />
He screwed his courage up so tight <br />
<br />
The whole thing come unwound <br />
<br />
He got a runninstart and bless his heart <br />
<br />
He headed for the ground<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Chorus <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
He? one of those who knows that life <br />
<br />
Is just a leap of faith <br />
<br />
Spread your arms and hold you breath <br />
<br />
Always trust your cape <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
All grown up with a flour sack cape <br />
<br />
Tied all around his dream <br />
<br />
He? full of piss and vinegar <br />
<br />
He? bustinat the seams <br />
<br />
He licked his finger and checked the wind <br />

It? gonna be do or die <br />
<br />
He wasn? scared of nothin Boys <br />
<br />
He was pretty sure he could fly <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Chorus <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Old and grey with a flour sack cape <br />
<br />
Tied all around his head <br />
<br />
He? still jumpinoff the garage <br />
<br />
And will be till he? dead <br />
<br />
All these years the people said <br />
<br />
He? actinlike a kid <br />
<br />
He did not know he could not fly <br />
<br />
So he did <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Chorus
