Lyrics

If you wanna be a bird
If you wanna be a bird
Won't you try a little flying?
No denying
It gets you high
Why be shackled to your feet
When you've got wings
You haven't used yet?
Don't wait for Heaven
Get out and fly
Just glide there
Through the clear air
Making figure eights
Through the Pearly Gates
Where the soul and the universe meet
If you wanna be a bird
It won't take much
To get you up there
When you come down
Land on your feet
Just glide there
Through the clear air
Making figure eights
Through the Pearly Gates
Where the soul and the universe meet
If you wanna be a bird
It won't take much
To get you up there
When you come down
Land on your feet
