WOW! No legends here but me! 😂I was a groupie for this band! This song is the story of Karl Wallenda..nickname Poppy who fell to his death 1978. He was the founder of the Flying Wallendas. They still perform. Awaiting for next debut from Nik in Sarasota, Florida.
Did you ever get the feeling There just ain't nothing you can do? You stand by half asleep As your life leaves the room You can't sleep at night You start to shiver and shake You start drinking from the bottle You start planning your next mistake You try not to say the things that shouldn't be said You know it's just a dumb game you play with yourself You never come out ahead It might be the time of year, might just be the place No, it's just another game you play with yourself You're tired of running away You get tired of running away, mmmm yeah Last night, I saw a man fall off a wire 150 feet, straight down, to the sidewalk The people looking up, they cried out in terror That wind started taking that daredevil's dare I thought I saw him smile as he started to fall Someone said Now Sit down Poppy, Poppy sit down. Sit down Poppy, Poppy sit down. Now listen here A screen writer in New York Don't stand a chance on the Brooklyn Bridge If you want to make the Action Movie News you got to jump and jump quick It's time for a decision You can't make the crowd wait The lines are getting long The bridge is sagging under the weight That bridge is sagging under the weight Last night, I saw a man fall off a wire 150 feet, straight down, to the sidewalk The people looking up, they cried out in terror That wind started taking that daredevil's dare I thought I saw him smile as he started to fall Someone said Now Sit down Poppy, Poppy sit down. Sit down Poppy, Poppy sit down. Sit down Poppy, Poppy sit down Sit down Poppy, Poppy sit down Sit down Poppy, Poppy sit down Sit down Poppy, Poppy sit down I wish we were on the beach in Peurto Rico tonight, baby The thin line gets so wide, you smother me in the lights You smother me in the lights You smother me in the lights
