Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, no, you'll never get me up in one of these again
'Cause what goes up (What goes up) Must come
Down, down, down, down
[Verse 2]
Just like a rollin' stone
I'm outside lookin' in
But if your chance came would you take it?
Where on earth do I begin?
I'm Mandy fly me
[Verse 3]
I've often heard her jingle
It's never struck a chord
[Verse 4]
With a smile as bright as sunshine
She called me through the poster
And welcomed me aboard
[Verse 5]
She led me, she fed me
She read me like a book
But I'm hidin' in the small print
Won't you take another look
And take me away?
Try me, Mandy, fly me away
[Verse 6]
The world was spinnin' like a ball
And then it wasn't there at all
And as my heart began to fall
[Verse 7]
I saw her walkin' on the water
As the sharks were comin' for me
I felt Mandy pull me up, give me the kiss of life
Just like the girl in Dr. No, no, no, no
[Verse 8]
Oh, when they pulled me from the wreckage
And her body couldn't be found
Was it in my mind? It seems I had a crazy dream
I told them so
But they said no, no, no, no
[Verse 9]
I found me on a street
And starin' at a wall
[Verse 10]
If it hadn't have been for Mandy
Her promise, up above me
Well, I wouldn't be here at all
(So if you're travelin' in the sky)
Don't be surprised if someone said hi
I'm Mandy fly me
