Maple Bee - Metal Bird Lyrics
Like a metal bird, with a cold, cold heartLiving in a tiny cage, one thing’s for certainShe will never fly awayLike a metal bird, with an old old heartLiving in a tiny cage, one thing’s for certainShe will never fly awayLooking in the glass and she’s wondering why?Wondering all the chances that have passed her by,Beauty has a price to pay - she will never fly away,Wondering at the river flooding, flooding down her roadShe’s soaking wet and freezing to the boneWarmth has a price to pay - she will never fly awayWondering at the roses, that have grown so tallClimbing creepers if she climbs she’ll fall - safety has a price to pay,She will never fly awayJust like a metal bird, with a cold, cold heartLiving in a tiny cage, one thing’s for certainShe will never fly awayLike a metal bird, with an old, old heartLiving in a tiny cage, one thing’s for certainShe will never fly awayCatch her in the birdsong, as they fly awayCatch on the riverbank, on a summers dayCatch her in a car shine, by the launderetteRunning in the soapsuds, she’s down the drain again,Catch a little boat to the other side of the roadCatch a little boat, catch a little boat, catch a little boatTo the other side, gonna sail the sea in the garden,She will never fly away,She will never fly away,She will never fly awayJust like a metal bird, with a cold, cold heartLiving in a tiny cage, one thing’s for certain…..
