The Word

Lyrics

[Verse] Bird is The Word - haven't you heard? Everyone knows life is absurd Bird is The Word, and it's getting me down Oh oh oh [Verse] Bird is The Word - it comes and it goes We live chemical lives in chemical clothes Bird is The Word and I'm touching my nose Oh oh oh [Chorus] We carry the rocks and pox and knocks and hollyhock They're sinking through the boat in you - we need to talk If they bury the luck we'll ferry the load away While they're blinking the eyes of Gods They haven't a clue - but we know what to do And they won't believe a word They won't believe The Word [Verse] Bird is The Word And we're reaching the end You can wait for your train to come 'round the bend But Bird is The Word - there's no need to pretend Oh oh oh [Chorus] They'll carry the bucks away We'll sink in the eyes of Gods They haven't a clue but we know what to do And they won't believe a word No they won't believe The Word! [Outro] Bird is The Word And though it's easy to say We spend most of our time living day after day But Bird is The Word So I'm flying away Oh oh oh
