David Sylvian - Jean The Birdman Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • He gambles on the saddle
  • Hes pulling on the mane
  • He thrashes on the horses back
  • Ambition is a bloody game
  • Horse doesnt want to jump
  • The river looks too wide
  • Well he faces every hurdle
  • With a nervous state of mind
  • Stay with me, breathe deeply
  • Take three passes back
  • Turn and make a full attack
  • The gods are laughing
  • And theyre tugging at the reins
  • But hes taken to his wings
  • And they hit the bank
  • Heaven may stone him
  • But jean the birdman pulls it off
  • His fingers on the trigger
  • His eye is on the clock
  • He doesnt give the game away
  • And quickly fires the bullets off
  • Six hearts cut short
  • Still dreaming theyre alive
  • Blown round in dusty circles
  • Like an absent state of mind
  • Who hunter? who victim?
  • God love america
  • He surely doesnt love him
  • Hitching out of nowhere
  • Lines of traffic knee deep
  • A chance to stave the morning off
  • And get some sleep
  • Heaven may stone him
  • But jean the birdman pulls it off
  • He wears a crucifix
  • His mother left to him
  • Its wrapped in chains around his heart
  • Rusted and wafer thin
  • Dont count on luck son
  • All the angels sing
  • Dont need to check a weathervane
  • We all know what tomorrow brings
  • Life is a cattle farm
  • Coyotes with the mules
  • Life is a bullring
  • For taking risks and flouting rules
  • Who needs a safety net
  • The world is open wide
  • Just look out for card sharks
  • And the danger signs
  • Heaven may stone him
  • But jean the birdman pulls it off
