Birds Lyrics
Spend the day in your bed, taking medicine
If that's the only thing that keeps you calm
Well, one of these days you gotta get up and get out
There is a purpose for all of my sitting here
If you can't understand
Well, you could
If you could just stretch your attention span
Now, for this song
I hope that this what you would want
Cause my throat will be the first thing to go
And I hope that someday I'll hear everyone sing
Is that all you got?
Turn it up, keep it comin'
Cause I got the words to keep the birds humming
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong
Spend your life with a pen and a microphone
You wrote down everything that you could
In case somebody gives them a second glance
Now, for this long
I hope that this what you would want
Cause my throat will be the first thing to go
And I hope that I'll remember when everyone sang
Is that all you got?
Turn it up, keep it comin'
Cause I got the words to keep the birds humming
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong with everyone
And let's go!
Is that all you got?
Turn it up, keep it comin'
Cause I got the words to keep the birds humming
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong (x2)
If that's the only thing that keeps you calm
Well, one of these days you gotta get up and get out
There is a purpose for all of my sitting here
If you can't understand
Well, you could
If you could just stretch your attention span
Now, for this song
Cause my throat will be the first thing to go
And I hope that someday I'll hear everyone sing
Turn it up, keep it comin'
Cause I got the words to keep the birds humming
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong
You wrote down everything that you could
In case somebody gives them a second glance
Now, for this long
Cause my throat will be the first thing to go
And I hope that I'll remember when everyone sang
Turn it up, keep it comin'
Cause I got the words to keep the birds humming
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong with everyone
Turn it up, keep it comin'
Cause I got the words to keep the birds humming
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong
Well, there's gotta be something
Oh, there's gotta be something wrong (x2)

*stretch your attention span
i loveee it
well the starting line are trying hard to make a new sound and please people with what they now do and to make a good impression... it really shows how hard they try come the bridge. The first lines in the chorus is what some fans say to the bands in the term of their new music
It's actually "OR there's gotta be something," according to the booklet.
This song has been my ringtone for EVER!! Hah. I never want to change it because it would just be blasphemous.
