XTC - Nonsuch

My Bird Performs - 2001 Remaster

Fine art never moved my soul
No vintage wine and designer clothes

But my world shakes for me
My bird sings sweetly

A different kind of tinsel decorates my tree
Yeah, my bird performs
A thousand Cheshire Cats grin inside of me
Yeah, my bird performs, there she goes

Shakespeare's sonnets leave me cold
The drama stage and the highbrow prose

But my world shakes for me
My bird sings sweetly

The brightest fireworks are lighting up my sky
Yeah, my bird performs
The cage is open, but she's no desire to fly
'Cause my bird performs, there she goes

And you keep saying what you got
You keep saying what you got, look out

(Fine art never moved my soul)
My bird sings sweetly
(No vintage wine and designer clothes)
My bird sings sweetly

My bird sings sweetly (Shakespeare's sonnets leave me cold)
My bird sings sweetly
My bird sings sweetly (the drama stage and the highbrow prose)
My bird sings sweetly
