Pay It No Mind

Up by the window of the seventh floor There's a little bird stretching her wings She's looking down at the world far below her I can hear the little tune that she sings She says, "We all have our notions, baby We all laugh and sigh And when the world on the ground Is gonna swallow you down Sometimes you've got to pay it no mind" There is a time for shouting There is a time to fight And if your heart's wide open you might start to get the notion That nothing's going right But if you're wise you know that sometimes, baby It don't help to yell and cry And when the world makes you frown Don't let it swallow you down Sometimes you've got to pay it no mind Sometimes you've got to pay it no mind You know the world keeps turning without you, baby But it's okay to yell and cry And when the ghosts on your screen, they demand to be seen Sometimes you've got to pay 'em no mind Pay 'em no mind Up by the window of the seventh floor My little bird's getting ready to fly She's had enough of the world down below her And now she's looking up at the sky She says, "We all have our notions, baby We all laugh and sigh And when the world on the ground Is gonna swallow you down Sometimes you've got to pay it no mind Sometimes you've got to pay it no mind Sometimes you've got to pay it no mind"
