Rockbird Lyrics

Some said the Jaybird to the Cockatoo
Want a commitment from inside the zoo
Say hey birdbrain why be sly
Tell me how a Rockbird can learn to fly
Hello Joe whadooya know
I just got back from the animal show
I left my history teacher sitting in the bleachers
And got back in time to see the second half of creature features
Rockbird pretty boy
Rockbird pretty boy
Fast as light
Rockbird pretty boy
Rockbird pretty boy
Meteorite
Back at the compound they start to get up
Looking at the bottom of an empty cup
Say hery they got the tropics with the migratory
Back to basics tweddle dee dee
(Repeat Chorus)
Got to get a go-go get me outa this cage
This Birdland dancing is all the rage
Gotta get me up there for a bird's eye veiw
It's bird walking weather
See ya back at the zoo

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
