Birdie

Up ahead yonder is a bird that cannot fly Don't make no fuss though Near as I can tell Aim to make him learn to sing the blues By God that bird can sure carry a tune Birdie don't you worry It ain't so great to fly This world's a dangerous place for you anyway You're better off inside a cage that's warm and dry Koi ponders future Fishing for a sign Zebras smoke Camels Just to pass the time Breaks my heart to tell y'all the truth But nature learns to soldier through Birdie don't you worry It ain't so bad to die There ain't no use in livin' anyway When you don't know why Red The color of my neck Old songs and poison in my head Long gone are the good old days Time has come to bury the dream that finally died There ain't no use in livin' anyway When you don't know why
