Bird Song

Well, I didn't tell anyone, but a bird flew by

Saw what I'd done, he set up a nest outside

And he sang about what I'd become

He sang so loud, sang so clear

I was afraid all the neighbours would hear

So I invited him in, just to reason with him

I promised I wouldn't do it again

But he sang louder and louder inside the house

And no, I couldn't get him out

So I trapped him under a cardboard box

Stood on it to make him stop

I picked up the bird and above the din I said

"That's the last song you'll ever sing"

Held him down, broke his neck

Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget

But in my dreams began to creep

That old familiar tweet, tweet, tweet

I opened my mouth to scream and shout, I waved my arms and flapped about

But I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout, couldn't scream and I couldn't shout

I opened my mouth to scream and shout, I waved my arms and flapped about

But I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout, the song was coming from my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth

From my mouth
