The complete lyrics:
-------------------
And when the sun falls heavy on my head
Don't you know, man, I could cry
'Cause whether I sink or swim you know I'll end up dead
Don't you know, man, I could cry
But if I go with the flow
Let myself go
Tonight could be the night
It doesn't really matter
Things could only get better tonight, yeah
All aboard the Skylark it's such a lot of fun, you'll see
All aboard the Skylark where everybody travels for free
And when the world comes knocking down upon my door
Well, don't you know that it's no fun
'Cause whether you win or lose it really doesn't matter
Life has got you on the run
But if I go with the flow
Let myself go
Tonight could be the night
It doesn't really matter
Things could only get better tonight, yeah
All aboard the Skylark it's such a lot of fun, you'll see
All aboard the Skylark where everybody travels for free
