As the Birds Are

Oh, to be as the birds are
Unburdened by loneliness
Oh, to be a shining star
So far away with no regret
Oh, to live in some photograph
Smiling and in love
Far from where I said all that
Shit about freedom

Annie put your weapon down
Ba dah ba dah
I saw you last night
You were runnin' 'round (Ba da ba da)
With them coyotes
Hollerin' in the city streets (Ba da ba da)
They don't lay a hand on me
Ba dah ba dah

Fancied myself the exception to almost any rule
Youth is wasted on the young
I was exceptionally cruel
Like any person I am insecure
You never judged me for that mountain
You gave me love
I wasn't woman enough
I just drank up the fountain

Annie put your weapon down
Ba da ba da
I saw you last night
You were runnin' 'round (Ba da ba da)
With them coyotes
Hollerin' in the silly streets
They don't lay a hand on me
Ba da ba da
They dont' lay a hand on me
Ba da ba da
They don't lay a hand on me

Ba da ba da
Ba da ba da
Ba da ba da
Ba da ba da
