Pompeii
No one can see
My bravery
I stomp on humdrum ground
I navigate mundane terrain
But all the same
An ancient flame
Ignites a fervency that
Surges into every vein
Dash, jump, climb, crawl!
Gotta get out, gotta get out
Dart, dive, fly, tumble!
Gotta get out, gotta get out
Gotta get you out, out, out!
In a previous life
I surely swept you off your feet
And carried you away
From the choking ash and scorching heat
To begin anew beyond the ruins of Pompeii
And to live to see another sunny day
Ay ay-a-a-ay ay ay
Ay ay ay-a-a-ay ay a-a-ay
On every list
Of things to do
An unchecked box reminds me
That the task of saving you
Remains undone
And unbegun
And unfulfillable
Until the day we need to run
Until the day we need to run
We need to run and
Dash, jump, climb, crawl!
Gotta get out, gotta get out
Dart, dive, fly, tumble!
Gotta get out, gotta get out
Gotta get you out, out, out!
In a previous life
I surely swept you off your feet
And carried you away
From the choking ash and scorching heat
To begin anew beyond the ruins of Pompeii
And to live to see another sunny day
Ay ay-a-a-ay ay ay
Ay ay ay-a-a-ay ay a-a-ay
From form to form
From place to place
From birth to birth
From death to death
From earth to outer space
From Plague and flood
From fire and blight
From each catastrophe
That threatens to eclipse your light
Dash, jump, climb, crawl!
Gotta get out, gotta get out
Dart, dive, fly, tumble!
Gotta get out, gotta get out
Gotta get you out, out, out!
To begin anew beyond the ruins of Pompeii
And to live to see another sunny day
Ay ay-a-a-ay ay ay
Sunny day
Ay ay-a-a-ay ay ay
Sunny day
Ay ay-a-a-ay ay ay
Sunny day
Ay ay-a-a-ay ay ay
Sunny day
My bravery
I stomp on humdrum ground
I navigate mundane terrain
But all the same
An ancient flame
Ignites a fervency that
Surges into every vein
Dash, jump, climb, crawl!
Gotta get out, gotta get out
Dart, dive, fly, tumble!
Gotta get out, gotta get out
Gotta get you out, out, out!
In a previous life
I surely swept you off your feet
And carried you away
From the choking ash and scorching heat
To begin anew beyond the ruins of Pompeii
And to live to see another sunny day
Ay ay-a-a-ay ay ay
Ay ay ay-a-a-ay ay a-a-ay
On every list

That the task of saving you
Remains undone

And unfulfillable
Until the day we need to run
Until the day we need to run
We need to run and
Dash, jump, climb, crawl!
Gotta get out, gotta get out

Gotta get out, gotta get out
Gotta get you out, out, out!

From the choking ash and scorching heat
To begin anew beyond the ruins of Pompeii
And to live to see another sunny day

Ay ay-a-a-ay ay ay

Ay ay-a-a-ay ay ay

Ay ay-a-a-ay ay ay
Sunny day
