Lyrics

Hey, wait a minute, come on back
Don't flop your flippers in a flustered flap
What you need is a plan of attack
Guess what? I got the knack

So rest assured now, don't be nervous
Say the word and I'm at your service
Satisfaction's guaranteed in advance
Just give me a chance

This fearless flying volunteer
Can baffle any buccaneer
With a dip, a dodge, a zip and a zap
I'm set to spring any trap

Wise disguises will give 'em the slip
I'm packed for action and fully equipped
To rise above any circumstance
Just give me a chance

Just because a bird's got feathers
That don't mean we flock together
Some are bad, but some are better
Take me, I'm a real go-getter

Give me a break now, let me prove it
You got a mountain? I can move it
Loosen up now, give me a try
I'll leave those pirates high and dry
Then can't escape my eagle eye

I'll put 'em in a trance
Oh, please
I'm on my knees
Just give me a chance
