Verse 1

I was in the air when the towers came down

In a bar on the 84th flo or

I bought Philippe P etit a round

And asked what his high wire was for

He s aid, "I put one foot on the wire

One foot straight into h eaven

As the prophets entered boldly into the bar

On the Boeing 737, Lord, on the Boeing 73 7"

Chorus

Hey, little bird, would you be the one

To nest beneath my G atling gun?

There's nothing left I call my own

Come down and build me a h ome

Verse 2

I was in a bar when they rigged the towers

Trying to leave all my sins

The barmaid asked my or der

And where my mind had be en

I tried to recall the high wire

Philippe and his foot there in h eaven

As the prophets entered boldly in to the bar

On the Boeing 737, Lord, on the Boeing 7 37

Chorus x2
