Lyrics for Songbird Son
He was a songbird son She was a Hitchcock blonde And they were on the rush She was on some toothy diet He'd become so unexcited On a canal pink night Under a globe box light The songbird son died Quiet songbird son you lost your right to sing Message better left unsaid Don't say nothing Message better left unsaid Don't say nothing And so they made their camp On a runaway truck remp Yeah, they were on the run The tent gets filled with sun And in her dreams the tanning bed turns on And now the chapter crushed The CHP light flash Its summer song died Quiet songbird son you lost your right to sing Message better left unsaid Don't say nothing Message better left unsaid Don't say nothing Some things better left unsaid Don't say nothing Message better left unsaid Don't say nothing
