Sammy was low

Just watching the show

Over and over again

Knew it was time

Hed made up his mind

To leave his dead life behind

His boss said to him

Boy you'd better begin

To get those crazy notions right out of your head

Sammy who do you think that you are

You shouldve been sweeping up the emerald bar

Spread your wings and fly away

Fly away far away

Spread your little wings and fly away

Fly away far away

Pull yourself together

Cos you know you should do better

Thats because you're a free man

He spends his evenings alone in his hotel room

Keeping his thoughts to himself hed be leaving soon

Wishing he was miles and miles away

Nothing in this world nothing would make him stay

Since he was small

Had no luck at all

Nothing came easy to him

Now it was time

Hed made up his mind

This could be my last chance

His boss said to him now listen boy

You're always dreaming

Youve got no real ambition you won't get very far

Sammy boy don't you know who you are

Why can't you be happy at the emerald bar

So honey

Spread your wings and fly away

Fly away far away

Spread your little wings and fly away

Fly away far away

Pull yourself together

Cos you know you should do better

Thats because you're a free man
