Talking Bird
Oh, my talking bird Though you know so few words You're on infinite repeat Like your brain can't keep up with your beak You're kept in an open cage so your free to leave or stay Sometimes you get confused There's a hint that I'm trying to give you The longer you think the less you know what to do It's hard to see your way out When you live in a house, in a house You don't realize that the windows Were open the whole time Oh, my talking bird Though your feathers are tattered and furled I'll love you all your days 'Til your breath leaves your delicate frame It's all here for you as long as you choose to stay It's all here for you as long as you don't fly away
