Everyday
Friends say
They want
To be free
As free
As they think
A bird
A bird would be
Free to roam,
To stay at home,
To live
A life alone
To be
Nothing more
Than what
They want to be
I don't want to be free 'cause you, you love me
You got a feeling you can't deny
You got the moon floatin' in your eye
You need me so, won't let me go
'Cause if we part your heart will die
Birds live in constant fear,
Slaves to the atmosphere
Flyin' their ass off twice a year
Tryin' to stay alive
I don't want to be free 'cause you, you love me
I got it good, I know it's true
You love me more than I love you
You do the things I don't want to do,
You sell your soul to pay my dues.
If I had to fly across the sea
I'd be a quick casualty
Darwin don't apply to me,
Trying to stay alive.
I don't want to be free 'cause you, you love me
