Pop Fly

Coach has put me in the outfield
Do I even need to mention
It's my job to catch the ball and
More important pay attention
To the pitcher
Or the batter
Is it the former or the latter
Does it even really matter?

When there are dandelions grown' along the fence
And there's cotton candy clouds that look like elephants
And that squirrel up in the tree's looking down and me
And back up at the sky

Is it a bird or a plane?
Should I pray for some rain?
Or I hope that its just a helicopter
Suddenly I'm seized by a horrible disease
Someone please, Someone please
Call my family doctor

'Cause it's a...
Pop pop pop pop pop pop pop
Pop pop pop pop pop pop
Pop pop pop pop pop
Pop fly pop fly

Pop pop pop pop pop pop pop
Pop pop pop pop pop pop
Pop pop pop pop pop
Pop fly pop fly

Pop! pop! pop! pop!

Oh it's nothing
I'm feeling better
Thought it was round and made of leather
I could really use a snowcone
Hope my baseball cover isn't blown

We're in the sixth or seventh inning
I don't know if we're even winning
If it's over or just beginning?

When there are weeping willow trees
Outside the shady stadium
And there's giant bumble bees
Collecting honey for their homes

And that squirrel up in the tree
Is looking down at me and back up at the sky

Is it a bird or a plane?
Should I pray for some rain?
Or I hope that its just a helicopter
Suddenly I'm seized by a horrible disease
Someone please, Someone please
Call my family doctor

'Cause it's a...
Pop pop pop pop pop pop pop

Pop pop pop pop pop pop
Pop pop pop pop pop
Pop fly pop fly

Pop! pop! pop! pop!
Fly

I would rather lie
Anywhere but here (anywhere but here)
Underneath this ball
As it falls

I'm all alone here in the outfield
Do I need to mention
That I caught the
Pop pop pop pop pop pop pop
Pop pop pop pop pop pop
Pop pop pop pop pop
Pop fly pop fly

Pop pop pop pop pop pop pop
Pop pop pop pop pop pop
Pop pop pop pop pop

Pop! pop! pop! pop!
