Mandolin Orange Wee Bird lyrics

Wee bird chirped and swore my life was a lie
And I thought that the fox was sly,
But oh, boys, that fox just passed me by
While that wee bird squawked and damn near wrecked my mind.

Now a birds' eye view is truly king.
And I was just a pawn to her highness, the Feathered Queen.
Still I wore that crown and tried my best to keep it clean.

Cause that bird could sing, and that bird could fly,
That bird could steal, and she sure could lie.
And I reached into her wee bird mouth, and pulled the worm out,
And it poisoned me. Yes, it poisoned me.

Well, bye bye birdie, I think we both knew
That the nest we built for two, was best suited for you.
Still I must admit that my love was true. Yes, it's true.


I said a birds' eye view is truly king.
And I was just a pawn to her highness, the Feathered Queen.
Still I wore that crown and tried my best to keep it clean.

Cause that bird could sing, and that bird could fly,
That bird could steal, and she sure could lie.
And I reached into her wee bird mouth, and pulled the worm out,
And it poisoned me. Yes it poisoned me. It poisoned me.

Wee bird chirped and swore my life was a lie
And I thought that the fox was sly,
But oh, boys, that fox just passed me by
While that wee bird squawked and damn near wrecked my mind.
