Birds Songtext / Lyric

She was waiting at the station

He was getting off the train

He didn't have a ticket so he had to bum through the barriers again



Well, the ticket inspector saw him rushing through

He said "girl, you don't know how much I missed you but we better run

'Cos I haven't got the funds to pay this fine"

She said, "fine"



So they ran out of the station and jumped on to a bus with two of yesterday's travel cards and two bottles of Bud

Then he said, "you look well nice"



Well, she was wearing a skirt and he thought she looked nice and yeah she didn't really care about anything else

'cos she only wanted him to think that she looked nice and he did



But he was looking at her all funny in the eye

She said, "c'mon boy, tell me what your thinking now, don't be shy"

He said, "alright, I'll try"



All the stars in the sky and the leaves in the trees

All broken bits that make you trip up and grassy bits in between

All the matter in the world, is how much that I like you



She said, "what?"

He said, "let me try and explain again"






Right, birds can fly so high

And they can shit on your head

They can almost fly into your eye

And make you feel so scared

But when you look at them and you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you



Right, birds can fly so high

And they can shit on your head

They can almost fly into your eye

And make you feel so scared

But when you look at them and you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you

Yeah, that's how I feel about you



She said, "what?"

He said, "you"

She said, "what are you talking about?"

He said, "you"



Right, birds can fly so high

And they can shit on your head

Yeah, they can almost fly into your eye

And make you feel so scared

But when you look at them and you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you



Right, birds can fly so high

And they can shit on your head

And they can almost fly into your eye

And make you feel well scared

But when you look at them and you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you

Right, that's how I feel about you



She said, "thanks, I like you too"

He said, "cool"
