Lyrics
The Bird Song
I sing these songs all day long, you don’t even listen
These songs are sad you see, so won’t you here my message
Its Nature’s sound, true pure innocent
Please tell the World my friend, we don’t condone violence
This is why I sing my song, all F’n day long
Its the Seattle Sound, so spread the word around
I fly around and I sing these songs
Spread the message to right all the wrongs
You gotta learn to give and share it all
Care for one another help each other along
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Get back to your roots back where you belong
I see the Corporate greed, destroy your neighborhood
They steal your children, and send them off to war
You break your back all day, they wanna cut your pay
I see you try so hard, to raise your family
You scrimp and pinch and save, to survive day by day
The Top takes more and more, families in poverty are ignored
I fly around and I sing these songs
Spread the message to right all the wrongs
You gotta learn to give and share it all
Care for one another help each other along
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Get back to your roots back where you belong
I fly all around, I hear all the sounds
I hear your children crying, see your brothers dying
CEO big bonuses, are leaving us Culture-less
This is why my songs so sad, I see the families with no nest
Brothers and Sisters around the World, stand up tall and take no more
This is why I sing these songs, all F’n day long
Its the Seattle Sound, its Roots all around
I fly around and I sing these songs
Spread the message to right all the wrongs
You gotta learn to give and share it all
Care for one another help each other along
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Get back to your roots back where you belong
