Danger Bird
Danger bird flies alone
He rides the wind back to his home
Although his wings have turned to stone
And we used to be so calm
Now I think about you all day long
'Cause you've been with another man
Here you are and here I am
That's the moment that he cracked
Long ago in the museum with his friends
The jailbird takes the raps
And he finds himself
Spread-eagled on the tracks
But the training that he learned
Will get him nowhere fast
And I know we should be free
But freedom's just a prison to me
'Cause I lied to keep it kind
When I left you far behind
With the rain pounding on his back
He recalls the moment that he cracked
Long ago in the museum with his friends
And like those memories
The rain keeps pounding
Down, down, down
And though these wings
Have turned to stone
I can fly, fly, fly away
Watch me fly above the city
Like a shadow on the sky
Fly, fly, fly
He rides the wind back to his home
Although his wings have turned to stone
And we used to be so calm
Now I think about you all day long
'Cause you've been with another man
Here you are and here I am
That's the moment that he cracked
Long ago in the museum with his friends
The jailbird takes the raps
And he finds himself
Spread-eagled on the tracks
But the training that he learned
Will get him nowhere fast
And I know we should be free
But freedom's just a prison to me
'Cause I lied to keep it kind
When I left you far behind
With the rain pounding on his back
He recalls the moment that he cracked
Long ago in the museum with his friends
And like those memories
The rain keeps pounding
Down, down, down
And though these wings
Have turned to stone
I can fly, fly, fly away
Watch me fly above the city
Like a shadow on the sky
Fly, fly, fly
