Fieldfare

Why are you so blue my dear?
Come crash that weight into my care
Watch the fieldfare fly overseas
Dancing in the breeze

My helpless leaves
Covers fall in an orange disease
Milky skies
Those birds of passage singing goodbye

Drew a sketch of you at thirteen
That frame is hanging thin on the wall
Brought us back to spots we knew
And tuned the strings for you

My own two feet
Planted deep in society's field
One of these days I'll cut the grass and make'm eat the grease
Birds of passage singing to me

When I'm cross I'll think of you
I should have locked us in the coop
Rhythm catches your thighs into new rhymes

Find a strong dad
Tony's comin in
Now we must cross that freeway
Who knew that car would change a lifeline before our eyes

Where is Mikey?
The calls are coming in
His wings did break before the final end
Wrapped in a million towels

Falling ever so slightly, slightly, slightly
Falling ever so slightly, slightly, slightly
Those birds won't come back again
