Bird Song Lyrics

Florence And The Machine

Well, I didn't tell anyone
But a bird flew by,
Saw what I'd done.
He set up a nest outside

And he sang about what I'd become.

He sang so loud, sang so clear.
I was afraid all the neighbors would hear,
So I invited him in just to reason with him.
I promised I wouldn't do it again.

But he sang louder and
Louder inside the house
And now I couldn't
Get him out.

I trapped him under a cardboard box
Stood on it to make him stop.
Picked up the bird and battled with him
I said, "That's the last song you'll ever sing."

Held him down, broke his neck,
Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget.
But in my dreams began to creep
That old familiar, "Tweet, tweet, tweet."

I opened my mouth to scream and shout.
I waved my arms and flapped about,
But I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout,
Couldn't scream and I couldn't shout!

I opened my mouth to scream and shout.
I waved my arms and flapped about,
But I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout,
Couldn't scream and I couldn't shout.
The song was coming from my mouth.

From my mouth... [x15]
