The sky’s looking grey again
If I try, I can almost pretend
That I’m a fly in a jar, on a shelf in a bar
And I can’t drive my car cuz I’m gone pretty far
Plus I’m a fly in a jar
The sky’s on fire again
Stay inside, keep away from friends
Like a fly in a jar drinking from a home bar
‘Til I reach for the stars, hit the side of my jar
I’m a fly in a jar
Come back, come back
Come back, oh sweet sanity
Come back, come back
Return to me, oh modicum of peace
Remember me
Your dear forgotten fly in a jar
When the sky is above us again
We’ll get together and laugh from beginning to end
And all those flies in their jars will get drunk at the bars
And we’ll pile up in cars to sleep under the stars
Goodbye, fly
Goodbye, fly
Goodbye, fly in a jar
