Shortly After Takeoff lyrics

[Verse 1]
I used to be terrified of flying
I still am
Consider this proof of living
A flight deck recorder of life
I took some medicine to fight it
But it made the pilot
Look like an alien

[Pre-Chorus]
Get me down
Get me on the ground

[Chorus]
Shortly after takeoff
You'll find me crashing out
I'm gonna pick up the pieces

[Verse 2]
Coming in to land
Over the Pennines, I'm holding an old lady's hand
When some f*ck made a joke
That he smelled some smoke
Coming from the 'Exit' sign

[Pre-Chorus]
Get mе out
Get me on the ground
[Chorus]
Shortly aftеr takeoff
You'll find me crashing out
Shortly after takeoff
You'll find me
Shortly after takeoff
You'll find me crashing out
I'm gonna pick up the pieces
