Birds

Living it up

In an apartment

Living it up

By a convenient store

It was thorn in my side

It was a thorn

It was a carpenters line

It was a thorn

Deliver me

I want to see your hands

Deliver me

From a sea of questions

Do you like birds

Do you like real big birds

Do you like great big birds

This is the biggest bird I've ever seen

The biggest building brought me down on my knees

The wolves were spreading on the island

You change your life around add verbs to everything

Cover your head when there is action

I woke up stumbling still staring at my shoes

The devil lay across my bedspread

Your friends are kings and queens and there heading for the noose

They'll hang like gamefish by the morning

Buy a new shirt

Buy some new shoes

And a new jacket

Way out west they build elevators

They build relationships there filling up empty boxes

And 1000 drummers playing 1000 songs saying

1000 rights equal 1000 wrongs

Don't you sharpen your teeth and your wits on children

You need some answers well you already got em

This is a harbor of boats and there aren't any sailors

This is a forest of snipers and theres not any cover
