Birds

She was waiting at the station

He was getting off the train

He didn't have a ticket so he had to bum through the barriers again

Well, the ticket inspector saw him rushing through

He said, "Girl, you don't know

How much I missed you, but

We'd better run

'Cause I haven't got the funds to pay this fine"

She said, "Fine"

Well, so they ran out of the station and jumped onto a bus

With two of yesterday's travel cards and two bottles of Bud

And he said, "You look well nice"

Well, she was wearing a skirt

And he thought she looked nice

And yeah, she didn't really care about anything else

'Cause she only wanted him to think that she looked nice

And he did

But he was looking at her, yeah, all funny in the eye

She said, "Come on, boy, tell me what you're thinking

Now, don't be shy"

He said, "Alright, I'll try"

All the stars up in the sky and the leaves in the trees

All the broken bits that make each part and grassy bits in between

All that matter in the world is how much I like you

She said, "What?"

He said, "Let me try and explain again

Right, birds can fly so high and they can shit on your head

Yeah, they can almost fly into your eye and make you feel so scared

But when you look at them and you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you"

"Right, birds can fly so high and they can shit on your head

Yeah, they can almost fly into your eye and make you feel so scared

But when you look at them and you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you

Yeah that's how I feel about you"

She said, "What?"

He said, "You"

She said, "What are you talking about?"

He said, "You"

"Right, birds can fly so high and they can shit on your head

Yeah, they can almost fly into your eye and make you feel so scared

But when you look at them and you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you"

"Right, birds can fly so high and they can shit on your head

Yeah, they can almost fly into your eye and make you feel so scared

But when you look at them and you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you"

"Right, that's how I feel about you"

She said, "Thanks, I like you, too"

He said, "Cool"
