Flexible Flyer Lyrics - Husker Du

Down on a flexible flyer 

To the bottom how fast I would go 

Just waiting for me under the tree 

And out in the snow 

A cowboy, a nurse or a fireman 

There's so many things that you can be 

You can set bigger goals, but set your soul 

Set your soul free 

Times, places and situations 

Leads to an early grave 

When we get there we see 

Just what did we save? 

If your heart is a flame burning brightly 

You'll have light and you'll never be cold 

And soon you will know that you just grow 

You're not growing old 

Times, places and situations 

Leads to an early grave 

When we get there we see 

Just what did we save? 

Times, places and situations 

Leads to an early grave 

When we get there we see 

Just what did we save? 

If the wheels of your wagon are rusty 

You can paint them until they are new 

You can roll down a hill, but if you can't 

Then I pity you
