Lyrics
FLY SAFE
Verse 1
Fly safe—don’t die
Do what you can to stay in the sky
Take charge of your plans
Don’t you leave it to chance
Keep yourself safe when you fly
Keep yourself safe when you fly
Verse 2
Ride safe on a fast train
Make sure it’s not your last train
Don’t let yourself fail
To stay on that rail
Ride safe and don’t crash the train
Ride safe and don’t crash the trash
Chorus
Travel safe, travel safe,
Wherever you are
Tavel safe, travel safe
By plane, train, ship, bus or car
By plane, train, ship, bus or car
Verse 3
Sail safe on the ship
Try not to drown on your trip
If you die at sea
Then in the freezer you’ll be
So sail safe and don’t even get sick
Sail safe and don’t even get sick
Verse 4
Drive safe when you’re out
If you run someone over, reroute
To keep on surviving
Don’t have sex while you’re driving
If your car catches fire, get out!
If your car catches fire get out
Chorus
Travel safe, travel safe,
Wherever you are
Tavel safe, travel safe
By plane, train, ship, bus or car
By plane, train, ship, bus or car
By plane, train, ship, bus or car
