The Way the Crow Flies

You don’t take me for a fool, now do you son?

Don’t bend the truth, even if it burns

Send it down the barrel of that gun

Shoot it straight, it’s better to be learned

Straighten the curve, I’ll rise above

Don’t worry if you hear me cry

Sharp and to the point is right

I’ll take the way that the crow flies

I’ll take the way that the crow flies

I’ve followed that black snake round the curve

Like buzzard, I’ve circled round the dead

It’s easy like a river just to swerve

The bird’s eye view will take you on ahead

Straighten the curve, I’ll rise above

Don’t worry if you hear me cry

Sharp and to the point is right

I’ll take the way that the crow flies

I’ll take the way that the crow flies

Straighten the curve, I’ll rise above

Don’t worry if you hear me cry

Sharp and to the point is right

I’ll take the way that the crow flies

I’ll take the way that the crow flies

I’ll take the way that the crow flies
