lyrics

Well he's flying, the dude is abiding
Never wants to let you down
He's so high, catching pies in the sky
He's the guy you want to have around
Whatever you want, whatever you need, he'll get

He never panics, lives life in a hammock
You can't take him off his game
He won't ask questions, only makes suggestions
And he calls you cool nicknames
Whatever you want, whatever you need, he'll get

He's the guy who does the things you can't, should not
He's the guy who gets the things the law says
That you should've not got

He's no saint, his life's not for the faint
But he does what he does for the score
You can't do it, but he's been through it
A people pleaser to the core
Whatever you want, whatever you need, he'll get

He's the guy who does the things you can't, should not
He's the guy who gets the things the law says
That you should've not got

He's the guy who does the things you can't, should not
He's the guy who gets the things the law says
That you should've not got

Well he's flying, the dude is abiding
He never wants to let you down
He's so high, catching pies in the sky
He's the guy you want to have around
Whatever you want, whatever you need, he'll get
Whatever you want, whatever you need, he'll get
