Birds

I really think the lyrics on this song are wrong, but I've looked for other versions and they're all exactly this. Same format and everything. Copy pasted everywhere. Can someone please figure out the real lyrics! Hahaha.

Well, I can hear parts that I know are different than these lyrics... I can't make out too much, but this is what I got.

You're looking at your ???, sting like a bee now Rollercoaster up in the air You wanna pop a bubble but you know it's only trouble 'cuz you think that noone better would care Wham, bam, it's a scam, no demand, we got plans We got nothin' better to say So we make our only choices that reminded you of voices Sayin' that nothin's really better today

I wanna hide, wanna be unknown And if I can't decide I get it on my own

Singin' like a leaf you know the reason ??? Sacrifices that'll live in your skin You're steady and you're ??? when you started seein' double And you never know the places you been Can't sit, take a hit, we got tipped, I got ??? A substance that is better than air We couldn't tell apart and it almost broke my heart The situation, well it just wasn't fair

You can never do anything that's never been done before You can try a different style ??? that said it before Wasted

??? (No idea here) We got nothin' better all day Stand out in the yard and you would kinda look retarded Get a feeling, go away

I wanna hide, wanna be unknown And if I can't decide I get it on my own

Tired on my own you know they like a resistance Even though ??? She got within my car and then she leaves me at the bar And makes me cry and ??? the other way

Wham, bam, it's a scam, no demand, we got plans We got nothin' better to say So we make our only choices, make our minds and make our voices Changin', nothin's really different today

You can never do anything that's never been done before You can try a different style but you always end up on the floor

Wasted

As far as the meaning goes, from what I can gather it may be about the whole rockstar lifestyle, what with all the drug references and maybe being scammed by executives and stuff, but also (as implied by the chorus) about the fact that nobody can ever truly be original in the music business, as there are set genres and standards about what makes a song "good" and there always have been, and if you don't adhere to those standards by trying something that's "new and different" you'll probably fail miserably. I think it's a statement about the fact that he doesn't give a **** what other people think and he'll make the music he wants, even if it means sacrificing popularity (I wanna hide, wanna be unknown And if I can't decide I get it on my own).

I dunno, maybe I'm overanalyzing. Maybe it doesn't really mean anything. O_o

Lyric correction:

first time:

You can never do anything that's never been done before You can try a different style, but you end up just the same as before Wasted

second time:

You can never do anything that's never been done before You can try a different style, but you always end up on the floor Wasted

I wish I could sing like Gibby, without having to do all the things Gibby's done.
