Jetpack
Jill Sobule
If I had a jetpack, the first thing that I'd do
Is fly above the gridlock and come to you
And peek into the windows on 5th avenue
To see how the other side lives
And if I had a jetpack, I would strap it on
I'd get out of this one-room and I'd be gone
To where there's real houses and big front lawns
If I had a jetpack
I'd take you up with me
At last we'd both be free
Past the Statue of Liberty
In my jetpack
If I had a jetpack, I'd fly above the bridge
I'd wave to all my friends who thought I'd never rise again
I'd fly above the stadium to watch my team win
Watch my team win
And if I had a jetpack, I'd bust into your door
And take you by the hand to the Jersey Shore
And underneath the moonlight, you'd want me even more
"˜Cause I'd have a jetpack
I'd take you up so high
If I dropped you, you would die, but I
I want you by my side
In my jetpack
Oh, I don't have a jetpack; I don't even have a car
I just have this token and a head full of stars
I wish you didn't live uptown so far
"˜Cause I don't have"¦
No, I don't have a jetpack
