Love And Rockets - Rain Bird Lyrics
Rain bird dives throught the holeIn a broken guitarRain bird sings a song so sad in blueLike a stranded insectStuck in a bowl of glueHe tries to flyBut he will dieIf he ever leaves the zooRain Bird / Rain BirdRain bird swoops through theChimney pots and rainRain bird flies to the edge of a gilded cageHiding in the spotlightsOf a famous stageHe tries to become invisibleWhilst stealing the front pageRain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain BirdWhen you were a boyYou used to wish for thisBut like the cat who turns his noseUp at the dishNow that you have itYou want to give it awayWhen you had to work so hardSlogging for a pittanceIn a boot and shoe yardThat's when you wantedWhat you now give awayRain BirdYou're all the rage, birdRain BirdYou're all the rage, bird
