Bird
Bird on a wire with a pocketful of holes
Broken down fiddle and a two haired bow
Headful of melodies nobody knows
How he landed in a poor man's clothes
There's a bird on his right got a baby on her breast
Bills piled up like a deadman's chest
Whole lotta nothing waiting for em' out west
Why they never bothered ever leaving this nest
Dog on a chain wearing circles in the lawn
Barking at the moon and howling at the dawn
Growling in the mirror with the curtains drawn
One day he was nearly gone
Pig's in the mud and there's another in the pan
Fill my stomach in a twenty minute span
Spill my blood for an acre of land
Never growing nothing but a bucket of sand
And a bird on a wire with a pocketful of holes
Broken down fiddle and a two haired bow
Headful of melodies nobody knows
How he landed in a poor man's clothes
He's got a headful of melodies nobody knows
Broken down fiddle and a two haired bow
Headful of melodies nobody knows
How he landed in a poor man's clothes
There's a bird on his right got a baby on her breast
Bills piled up like a deadman's chest
Whole lotta nothing waiting for em' out west
Why they never bothered ever leaving this nest
Dog on a chain wearing circles in the lawn
Barking at the moon and howling at the dawn
Growling in the mirror with the curtains drawn
One day he was nearly gone
Pig's in the mud and there's another in the pan
Fill my stomach in a twenty minute span
Spill my blood for an acre of land
Never growing nothing but a bucket of sand
And a bird on a wire with a pocketful of holes
Broken down fiddle and a two haired bow
Headful of melodies nobody knows
How he landed in a poor man's clothes
He's got a headful of melodies nobody knows
