(Chorus:)Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky arelike shooting starsI could really use a wish right now, a wish rightnow, a wish right nowCan we pretend that airplanes in the night sky arelike shooting starsI could really use a wish right now, a wish rightnow, a wish right nowI could use a dream or a Jeanie or a wishTo go back to a place much simpler than this’Cause after all the partyin’ and smashin’ and crashin’And all the glitz and glam and the fashionAnd all the pandemonium and all the madnessThere comes a time when you fade to the blacknessAnd when you’re starin at the phone in your lapAnd you hopin’ but them people never call you backBut that’s just how the story unfoldsYou get another hand soon after you foldAnd when your plans unravel in the sandWhat would you wish for if you had one chance?So airplane airplane sorry I’m lateI’m on my way so don’t close that gateIf I don’t make that then I’ll switch my flight andI’ll be right back at it by the end of the nightCan we pretend that airplanes in the night sky arelike shooting starsI could really use a wish right now, a wish rightnow, a wish right nowCan we pretend that airplanes in the night sky arelike shooting starsI could really use a wish right now, a wish rightnow, a wish right nowYeah somebody take me back to the daysBefore this was a job before I got paidBefore it ever mattered what I had in my bankYeah back when I was trying to get into the subwayAnd back when I was rappin for the hell of itBut nowadays we rappin’ to stay relevantI’m guessing that if we could make some wishes out orairplanesThen maybe oh maybe I’d go back to the daysBefore the politics that we call the rap gameAnd back when ain’t nobody listened to my mix tapeAnd back before when I tried to cover up my slangBut this is for the Decatur what’s up Bobby RaySo can I get a wish to end the politicsAnd get back to the music that started this shitSo here I stand and then again I sayI’m hopin we can make some wishes outa airplanesCan we pretend that airplanes in the night sky arelike shooting starsI could really use a wish right now, a wish rightnow, a wish right nowCan we pretend that airplanes in the night sky arelike shooting starsI could really use a wish right now, a wish rightnow, a wish right now (Repeat)I could really use a wish right nowI could really use a wish right nowLike, like, like shootin starsI could really use a wish right nowA wish a wish right now
