Lyrics Glee Cast – Wings
Text:
Mama told me not to waste my life
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep you up at night
And if they give you hell
My feet, feet can’t touch the ground
And I can’t hear a sound
But you just keep on running up your mouth, yeah
Walk, walk on over there
‘Cos I’m too fly
To care, oh yeah
Your words don’t mean a thing
I’m not listening
Keep talking, all I know is
Mama told me not to waste my life
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep you up at night
And they can’t detain you
‘Cos wings are made to fly
No, we don’t let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won’t hurt me
Don’t matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly
Hey, hey
I’m firing up on that runway
I know we’re gonna get there someday
But we don’t need no ready steady go, no
Talk, talk turns into air
And I don’t even care, oh yeah
Your words don’t mean a thing
Keep talking, all I know is
Mama told me not to waste my life
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep you up at night
And they can’t detain you
‘Cos wings are made to fly
No, we don’t let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won’t hurt me
Don’t matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly
I don’t need no one saying
Hey, hey, hey, hey
I don’t hear no one saying
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You better keep on walking
I don’t wanna hear your talking, boy
You better keep on walking
I don’t wanna hear your talking, boy
Your words don’t mean a thing
I’m not listening
They’re just like water off my
Wings!
Mama told me not to waste my life (Oh whoa)
She said spread your wings my little butterfly (My little butterfly)
Don’t let what they say keep you up at night
And they can’t detain you
‘Cos wings are made to fly
And we don’t let nobody bring us down (We don’t let nobody, nobody)
No matter what you say it won’t hurt me (Yeah, no)
Don’t matter if I fall from the sky (Oh, whoa)
These wings are made to fly
And we don’t let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won’t hurt me
Don’t matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly
