I don't care how sweet you sing
you're too pretty bird for me
I won't touch your dainty wings
you're too pretty bird for me
I'm uglier than sin and I will not let you in
I don't care how sweet you sing
you're too pretty bird for me
Raised in the everglades I'm made of crocodile scales
the cypress trees and sawgrass
modeled me of complex trails
and you'll never find your way back
cause my night is made of pitch black
Meet me in the mangroves if you dare
I don't care how sweet you sing
you're too pretty bird for me
I won't touch your dainty wings
you're too pretty bird for me
I"m uglier than sin and I will not let you in
I don't don't care how sweet you sing
you're too pretty bird for me
On sunrise boulevard I stood with cardboard sign and tears
(they said) If you can't complete this task you'll never face your fears
but the fear was always waiting and my past is humiliating
My heart's still on the corner if you care
So go on, if you think you're strong
I will not hold my breath
You bruise like a peach
You cry like a babe- falling from your crib- waiting to be saved
A damsel in distress- a beggar on the street
A pocket full of rests in the strongest of beats
So, I don't care how sweet you sing
You're too pretty bird for me
I don't care how sweet you sing
You're too pretty bird.
