Lyrics:

Just a small request from this human to a god.
Let me ask you a favor that might seem a little odd,
Im at a loss
I need to cross the ocean wide and I need to do it soon,
Like tomorrow afternoon
if thats okay,
Loan me some wings for a day.
Loan me some wings for a day.

They dont need to be Angels wings, Im sure theyre in demand
Something better than a chicken or a penguin would be grand.
I just cant wait
Shes set the date to marry him and it really should be me,
Which explains the urgency,
I cant delay
Loan me some wings for a day.
Loan me some wings for a day.

I promise I wont use them for a daredevil career,
I wont buzz the White House, or race seagulls at the pier
I wont get caught
Doing naughty things with pigeons
Or cropdusting in Des Moines
I wont run off to join,
Cirque de Soleil
Loan me some wings for a day
Loan me some wings for a day.

BRIDGE

Loan me some wings for a day.
Loan me some wings for a day.

I wouldnt ask this of anybody else, Im sure you sympathize
Cause youre the one who made those lips, and put the sparkle in her eyes,

Its not your fault I said the things I said
I dont blame you for making me a fool
But with these wings Ill fly right to her side
This time Ill follow through
Ah, c'mon God& Id do the same for you&

Just a small request from a human to a God,
Before she throws that last bouquet&
Loan me some wings for a day.
Loan me some wings for a day.
