Mockingbird
(vs. 1)
there are days i don't believe the words i say
like a life that i'm not living
a song that i'm not singing but to you
there are times that i believe i'm satisfied
like an intimate connection
despite this bad reception with you
(pre-chorus)
because i can't afford to pay
for most of what i say
so it's a lucky thing
that the truth's public domain
(chorus)
and i am like a mockingbird
i've got no new song to sing
and i am like an amplifier
i just tell you what i've heard
oh, i'm like a mockingbird
(vs. 2)
and yes, it's true that i need this more than you
like one whose name is many
have mercy, please don't send me away
(pre-chorus)
and i'll do all i can
to be a better man
oh i'll clean up this act
and be worse than we started
(chorus)
there are days i don't believe the words i say
like a life that i'm not living
a song that i'm not singing but to you
there are times that i believe i'm satisfied
like an intimate connection
despite this bad reception with you
(pre-chorus)
because i can't afford to pay
for most of what i say
so it's a lucky thing
that the truth's public domain
(chorus)
and i am like a mockingbird
i've got no new song to sing
and i am like an amplifier
i just tell you what i've heard
oh, i'm like a mockingbird
(vs. 2)
and yes, it's true that i need this more than you
like one whose name is many
have mercy, please don't send me away
(pre-chorus)
and i'll do all i can
to be a better man
oh i'll clean up this act
and be worse than we started
(chorus)
