Inspired by a William Blake poem titled ‘The Fly’.
The fly, whose life the speaker knows little about, has been brushed aside by the speaker. Having ruined the creature’s fun, the speaker is led in to a bout of extestential curiosity regarding their own purpose in life, and the similarities shared...
The Fly Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Little fly, thy summer's play
My thoughtless hand has brushed away
Am I not a fly like thee?
Or art thou not a man like me?
[Verse 2]
For I dance and drink, and sing
Till some blind hand shall brush my wing
If thought is life and strength and breath
And the want of thought is death;
[Bridge]
Doo doo dum doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Dum doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Dum doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Dum doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Dum doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Dum doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Dum doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Dum doo doo doo, doo doo
[Chorus]
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I
Die
[Verse 3]
Little fly, thy summer's play
My thoughtless hand has brushed away
Am I not a fly like thee?
Or art thou not a man like me?
[Verse 4]
For I dance and drink, and sing
Till some blind hand shall brush my wing
If thought is life and strength and breath
And the want of thought is death;
[Chorus]
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I die
Then I am a happy fly
If I live or if I
Die
