Birds

Times were tough, I'd saved some money Had some day time off Had to get away to get my jollies off So I left as quick as I could But when I came home I'd realized I'd left the lights all on The heat was blasting and the windows were all open and it was lettin' all the cold Air in And as I looked out I could see them On the top of the hill About to fly up away to some far off land Flyin' high above the silly drama all us humans have and I wish I could be more like Them flying overhead Oh hours later my bones were broken and my pride was hurt I should have learned to keep my big mouth shut Mmmm... Oh I screwed up, I can admit that now that I'm layed up, immobilized and praying That someone would come in and shut that open window that keeps on letting that cold Air seep into my bones And as I looked out I could see them On the top of the hill About to fly up away to some far off land Flyin' high above the silly drama all us humans have and I wish I could be more like Them flying overhead Oh sweatin' all the small stuff makes the tough times even tougher, there are quotas To be met, Big competitions with one another Stress can be a motivator, but also an instigator So I will keep it all locked down so it can kill me some day later Oh I don't know what the hell we gonna do this for, sometimes I wish I could just Fly out that open window and let the wind take me where it wants me to go Oh as I fly out I'll meet them on the top of the hill and we'll fly up away to some Far off land We'll be flying high abpve the silly drama all you humans have and I will be just Like them flying overhead.
