[Verse 1]
Sun's up, we wait all day
Sun's up, we wait all day, all day
The hell outside's kept away
If only we could move away from here
This is how we build a place
An aviary for today
An aviary for today
Let's disappear 'til tomorrow
Let's disappear 'til tomorrow
[Refrain]
Dis-a-ppe-ar, dis-a-ppe-ar
Dis-a-ppe-ar, -ar, -ar, -ar
[Verse 2]
Blow up these plane parades, let's go
To an aviary far from home
To an aviary far from home
A one-hand clap is me and you
And you, and you, and you
While the hell outside's kept away
If only we moved away
[Refrain]
Dis-a-ppe-ar, dis-a-ppe-ar
Dis-a-ppe-ar, -ar, -ar, -ar
[Chorus]
Last vacation was the same
We got moved away
Last vacation was the same
We got moved away
Last vacation was the same
We got moved away
[Verse 3]
Sun down, now we have built our place
An aviary forever
An aviary forever
Forever, forever
[Outro]
Re-a-ppe-ar, re-a-ppe-ar
Re-a-ppe-ar, re-a-ppe-ar
