about

It's not about a chicken.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Feeling way far out and too high strung since she up and came around
I’m right side up with my upside down

I don’t care about the things she says, but I like the things she does
This world was made for me but it wasn’t made for us.

Chorus:
The light don’t shine and the moon don’t glow
No the rain won’t go away
The sun is shining down but it’s not warm here in this place.
The birds fly low, and the bees buzz sweet
Melodies into the air
I gotta get away from here.

Verse 2:
I only got one chick left, and she don’t lay no eggs
Been playing with the red fox, and sleepin in his bed

Bridge:
My bird don’t fly, my bird she don’t fly
but I’ll watch her fly away from me
