Birdcage (OST Confession of a Child of the Century)
Little bird In a cage You’ve been turning heads around Yeah you played your part You sang along Under their instruction Looking through the bars Staring at the stars
Only love can heal the sickness of celebrity
One by one and day by day See the good ones, they fall (?) away See you standing there styling, You know you should be soaring
I know that you said we could never be together You’re too pretty and I'm too clever Good morning heartache and oh these foolish things
Only love can break the sickness of simplicity
Love is the bread Love is the wine
Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the soul’s heart close
Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the soul’s heart cold
Why, the caged bird always sings Through the ages for the pleasure of the king? Kneeling down with a thorn in your crown, Calling out your name, you slip away
I know that you said we could never be together, You’re too pretty and I'm too clever Good morning heartache Oh, these foolish things.
Only love can break the secrets of simplicity
Love is the bread Love is the wine
Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the soul’s heart close
Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the soul’s heart cold
