Rain bird dives throught the hole In a broken guitar Rain bird sings a song so sad in blue Like a stranded insect Stuck in a bowl of glue He tries to fly But he will die If he ever leaves the zoo
Rain Bird / Rain Bird
Rain bird swoops through the Chimney pots and rain Rain bird flies to the edge of a gilded cage Hiding in the spotlights Of a famous stage He tries to become invisible Whilst stealing the front page
Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird
When you were a boy You used to wish for this But like the cat who turns his nose Up at the dish Now that you have it You want to give it away
When you had to work so hard Slogging for a pittance In a boot and shoe yard That's when you wanted What you now give away
Rain Bird You're all the rage, bird Rain Bird You're all the rage, bird
