little bird song

hey little bird you dive in the ocean's waves to exhilarate your tongue

you swim through the clouds, feathers a-flutter with joy

you hide in the trees and bushes, all winky and coy

i'd love to fall hands-first along your side catching my little bugs and my little birds

i wish i could fly

i wish i could fly

oh ** oh i wish i wish i could fly

no wings, no plane, no parachute

so thanks, bluejay, crane, pelican,

all the birds,

for letting me come along

 

(what a way to die)

so happy i can fly

so happy i can fly
