Bird On A Wire

LETRA

Bird On A Wire

Like a bird, like a bird on a wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
i have tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm, like worm on a hook,
like a knight in an old fashioned book
i have saved all my ribbons for you.
And if i, if i've been unkind,
then i hope that you just let it pass on by.
Like a baby, like a baby stillborn,
like a beast with his horn
i have torn everyone who reached out for me.
And i saw a beggar he was leaning on his wooden crutch,
then he said to me "tom, don't you ask for so much."
Like a bird, like a bird on a wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
i have tried in my way to be free.
