| Chris Cornell – Killing Birds Lyrics | 7 years ago |
| I am a singer and I always had a thing for this song that I have listened to hundreds of times since this album was new. I believe there is a double metaphor. As the singer/performer,-(Chris Cornell) the reference to killing birds is the songwriters comparison to what he does for a living to being a chicken farmer who harvests chicken for a living. However, the title "Killing Birds" refers to how his undeniable talent as a performer commands people to listen to him as apposed to flipping him off or shooting a bird at him. | |
