I need to find some dirt but there's no dirt in this city
Just a little dirt only an it-ty bitty
A little greenery would really make this city pretty
I need to bury birdie and its mak-ing me feel shitty
Poor little birdie squoosheded on the ground
plastered to the floor never make another sound
lucky little birdie oh so happy to be found
cause now he's in heaven swimming all a-round
verse 1
I locate the train tracks but there's way too much gravel
further down the rail is the way I choose to travel
soon I find a place that is a bit more clear
but the ground is frozen and full of rocks just what I did fear
Poor little birdie squoosheded on the ground
plastered to the floor never make another sound
lucky little birdie oh so happy to be found
cause now he's in heaven swimming all a-round
verse 2
soon I find a place with a tiny landslide
and there's a spot that looks real soft with few rocks lodged inside
i look around to see if there's a better place
up the hill or hidden back but that is not the case
Poor little birdie squoosheded on the ground
plastered to the floor never make another sound
lucky little birdie oh so happy to be found
cause now he's in heaven swimming all a-round
verse 3
i dig into the earth and it's a score and win
I take a couple shovelfuls and place my new friends in
I bury up my birdie and say a little prayer
then I gather up rocks for the headstone and place them all with care
Poor little birdie squoosheded on the ground
plastered to the floor never make another sound
lucky little birdie oh so happy to be found
cause now he's in heaven swimming all a-round
I need to find some dirt but there's no dirt in this city
Just a little dirt only an it-ty bitty
A little greenery would really make this city pretty
I need to bury birdie and its mak-ing me feel shitty
Poor little birdie squoosheded on the ground
plastered to the floor never make another sound
lucky little birdie oh so happy to be found
cause now he's in heaven swimming all a-round
Poor little birdie squoosheded on the ground
plastered to the floor never make another sound
lucky little birdie oh so happy to be found
cause now he's in heaven swimming all a-round
