Birthday - Sugarcubes
A great song by Sugarcubes with only two chords. I've written out the chords on verse 1,
first refrain..after that it continues the same way. btw the refrain is just an
of what Björk is singing..
Verse 1
She lives in this house over there
Has her world outside it
Scrapples in the earth with her fingers and her mouth
She’s five years old
Thread worms on a string
Keeps spiders in her pocket
Collects fly wings in a jar
Scrubs horse-flies and pinches them on a line
Refrain
ah ah ah ah a
ah ah ah ahiihia
ah ah ahaha
ah ah ahyeah
Verse 2:
She has one friend, he lives next door.
They’re listening to the weather
He knows how many freckles she’s got
She scratches his beard
She’s painting huge books
And glues them together
They saw a big raven
It glided down the sky
She touched it
Refrain:
ah ah ah ah a
ah ah ah ahiihia
ah ah ahaha
ah ah ahyeah
Verse 3
Today is her birthday
They’re smoking cigars
He’s got a chain of flowers
And sows a bird in her knickers
Refrain:
ah ah ah ah a
ah ah ah hiihia
ah ah ahaha
ah ah ahyeah
They’re smoking cigars, they lie in the bathtub
A chain of .. flowers
dam, dam, dam, dam dada damdamdam etc..
