Rain bird dives throught the hole
In a broken guitar
Rain bird sings a song so sad in blue
Like a stranded insect
Stuck in a bowl of glue
(add ) - stick
He tries to fly
But he will die
If he ever leaves the zoo
- restart (add ) sequence
Rain Bird / Rain Bird
Rain bird swoops through the
Chimney pots and rain
Rain bird flies to the edge of a gilded cage
Hiding in the spotlights
Of a famous stage
(add ) - stick again
He tries to become invisible
Whilst stealing the front page
- restart (add ) sequence
Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird
When you were a boy
You used to wish for this
But like the cat who turns his nose
Up at the dish
Now that you have it
You want to give it away
- no chord
When you had to work so hard
Slogging for a pittance
In a boot and shoe yard
That's when you wanted
What you now give away
- no lyrics
- repeat (add ) sequence
Rain Bird
You're all the rage, bird
Rain Bird
You're all the rage, bird
- end on F#
