lyrics

I was dedicated
In face, obsessed
Decorated
Loved by the people and the press

I was a born flyer, to be sure
A king with wings
They'd come from miles
To watch me do my thing

So I looped the loop
I did a tailspin down
And I pulled out of it
Just two feet from the ground

I saw some people faint
I heard some people scream
I told the copycat daredevils
Not to follow me
Don't follow me
Don't follow me

Well, the wannabes
They wouldn't learn
They'd pose for a picture
And then they'd crash and burn

It happened over and over
I couldn't live with it
So I hung it up
Well, for a little bit

Then I looped the loop
I did a tailspin down
And I pulled out of it
Just two feet from the ground

I saw some people faint
I heard some people scream
I told the copycat daredevils
Not to follow me
Don't follow me
Don't follow me

I saw some people faint
I heard some people scream
As I fell from the sky
With a broken wing
Don't follow me
Don't follow me
