Intro

Verse

I was a sailboat, I was a sailor

I was a sign of our goin' or our comin'

I made it happen, down in the schoolyard

I was a firecracker exploding

Chorus

Hallelujah! The sparks flew up to heaven

They saw my smile and I was laughin' so hard

Hallelujah! The sparks flew up to heaven

And I left the sober people with their cold hearts

Verse

Sometimes there is someone, someone who knows you

But when you are sad there is no one

We're on a red bicycle, rollin' and rollin'

I'm quicksilver, I'm a dealmaker, don't you cross me once

Chorus

Hallelujah! The sparks flew up to heaven

They saw my smile and I was laughin' so hard

Hallelujah! The sparks flew up to heaven

And I left the sober people with their cold hearts

Verse

Nothin' can hold me to this earth that don’t own me

And I don't know if I'm dirty or clean

Well I was a sailboat, I was a sailor

And I was a firecracker exploding

Chorus

And o! why do you cry, sister, cry?

I've been talkin' with the angels and it's gonna be fine

Hallelujah! The sparks flew up to heaven

And I left the sober people with their cold hearts

End on
