Magpie (Live)

One for sorrow for the lives we took
Two for joy for when they started to look
Three for a girl cos she's finally heard
Four for a boy for he's as free as a bird
Come on, come on, come on, come on

We heat up the world and watch it die
There's only so much that us humans can buy
Why do we fight over colour of skin?
And who's loving who and who we should let in
Come on, come on, come on, come on

Fly, magpie fly

Freedom is all that we'll bring
It's all that we'll sing
It's all that we'll know
Freedom is a positive thing
Why don't we all bring
The love back home

Five for silver they would polish and shine
Six for gold but money runs out in time
Seven for a secret never to be told
Before it's too late and we're all grey and old
Come on, come on, come on, come on

We're making these rules without even a care
Don't we all breathe the same planets air?
I'm making a wish that our stories can turn
Cos peace love and kindness are things we can earn
Come on, come on, come on, come on

Fly, magpie fly

Body armour and fighting guns
We're gonna have to run
Hippy dancing out in the sun
We'll eventually have fun
Riots blazing, decisions spun
Change what's been said and done
We decide we're all number one
This world we've all come from

Freedom is all that we'll bring
It's all that we'll sing
It's all that we'll know
Freedom is a positive thing
Why don't we all bring
The love back home

It's not about doing it all for yourself
Giving your time up can help somebody else

Fly magpie fly
Fly magpie fly

Freedom

Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Ahh ahh ahh freedom
