Brother Thrush - A-Side Single 1969

Brother Thrush
How you fly so high
Way up in the clouds
The trees resound with
Open arms for one so rare
Brother Man just can't compare

When we're sitting
On the banks of the sunshine
We hear your song
On the banks of the sunshine
We hear your song
High above the living

Brother gull
See him soar the sky
He's so pleased to be
Buoyant and triumphant
On the raging sea
Backing nature, feeling free

And when we're sitting
On the banks of the sunshine
We hear your song
On the banks of the sunshine
We hear your song
High above the living

Loving nature
Rest your head
Hear the message
Man is dead
See the cities fall while
Brother Bird still... flies!

Brother Lark
See him wake the day
See him fly on by
Above the streets now
Empty to his mournful cry
Brother Man just heaves a sigh

But when we're sitting
On the banks of the sunshine
We hear your song
On the banks of the sunshine
We hear your song
High above the living

When we're sitting
On the banks of the sunshine
We hear your song
When we're sitting
On the banks of the sunshine
We hear your song
When we're sitting
On the banks of the sunshine
