[Verse 1]
One day the monkey jumps aboard, one day the black dog gets you
One day the demons write your name in blood upon a ledger
But see the sun is shining as I step down on the pike
So pretty in my uniform of anti-look-alike
And goodbye halls of academe, I never could respect you
And loved ones, I'll say fare thee well, I surely will neglect you
[Chorus]
Watch me go
Into the wide blue yonder
Watch me go
I'm a human cannonball
Watch me go
With a mighty peal of thunder
And I'll keep shouting
Till they lay me low
Low, low, low
Low, low, low
[Verse 2]
If it wasn't for Dalwhinnie and all his reckless crew
I never would have learned to shake my fist and hullabaloo
If it wasn't for the company I'd be talking to myself
Inside a padded eight by twelve, all on the National Health
And friends and kind acquaintances, I'll be writing very soon
The next time that you see me I'll be halfway to the moon
One day the monkey jumps aboard, one day the black dog gets you
One day the demons write your name in blood upon a ledger
But see the sun is shining as I step down on the pike
So pretty in my uniform of anti-look-alike
And goodbye halls of academe, I never could respect you
And loved ones, I'll say fare thee well, I surely will neglect you
[Chorus]
Watch me go
Into the wide blue yonder
Watch me go
I'm a human cannonball
Watch me go
With a mighty peal of thunder
And I'll keep shouting
Till they lay me low
Low, low, low
Low, low, low
[Verse 2]
If it wasn't for Dalwhinnie and all his reckless crew
I never would have learned to shake my fist and hullabaloo
If it wasn't for the company I'd be talking to myself
Inside a padded eight by twelve, all on the National Health
And friends and kind acquaintances, I'll be writing very soon
The next time that you see me I'll be halfway to the moon
