Bird on the Wire

Like a bird on the wirelike a drunk in a midnight choir

I have tried in my way to be free

Like a worm (fish) on a hooklike a knight from some old fashioned book

I have saved all my ribbons for thee

If I if I have been unkindI hope that you can just let it go by

If I if I have been untrueI hope you know it was never to you

Like a baby still bornlike a beast with his horn

I have torn everyone who reached out for me

But I swear by this song and by all that I have done wrong

I will make it all up to thee

I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch

he said to me "You must not ask for so much"

And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door

she cried to me "Hey why not ask for more?"

Oh like a bird on the wire

like a drunk in a midnight choir have tried in my way to be free
