Lyrics

The night doesn't like it
 Looks just like your face on the moon to me
 And I won't let you do
 What you want to do
 It's funny how, even now
 You're laughing
 I won't let you do it
 If you go, I'll let the law know
 And they'll head you off when you touch the ground
 Ooh, please, don't go through with this
 I don't like the sound of it
 It's funny how, even now
 You're miles away
 I won't let you do it
 I won't let you do it
 I won't let you go through with it
 Meet them over at Dover
 I'll just pilot the motor
 Take them over the water
 With a hired plane
 And no names mentioned
 Tonight's the night of the flight
 Before you know
 I'll be over the water
 Like a swallow
 There's no risk
 I'll whisk them up in no moonlight
 And though pigs can fly
 They'll never find us
 Posing as the night
 And I'm home before the morning
 In Malta, catch a swallow
 For all of the guilty to let them free
 Wings fill the window
 And they beat and bleed
 They hold the sky on the other side
 Of borderlines
 I won't let you do it
 I won't let you do it
 I won't let you go through with it
 Meet them over at Dover
 I'll just pilot the motor
 Take them over the water
 Like a swallow flying to Malta
 With a hired plane
 And no names mentioned
 Tonight's the night of the flight
 Before you know
 I'll be over the water
 Like a swallow
 There's no risk
 I'll whisk them up in no moonlight
 And though pigs can fly
 They'll never find us
 Posing as the night
 And I'm home before the morning
 Give me a break
 Ooh, let me try
 Give me something to show
 For my miserable life
 Something to take
 Would you break even my wings
 Like a swallow?
 (Let me, let me go!)
 With a hired plane
 And no names mentioned
 Tonight's the night of the flight
 Before you know
 I'll be over the water
 Like a swallow
 (Let me, let me go!)
 There's no risk
 I'll whisk them up in no moonlight
 And though pigs can fly
 They'll never find us
 Posing as the night
 And I'm home before the morning
 ♪
 (Let me, let me go!)
 With a hired plane
 And no names mentioned
 Tonight's the night of the flight
 Before you know
 I'll be over the water
 Like a swallow
 There's no risk
 I'll whisk them up in no moonlight
 And though pigs can fly
 They'll never find us
 Posing as the night
 And I'm home before the morning
 But you're not a swallow
