Early Bird Lyrics

Cover art for Early Bird lyrics by Mark Knopfler

Seems fairly obvious, especially with the Simon Cowell connection... no matter how much money, how many cars, boats, pools, villas, etc you have... it's all worth nothing in the end.

I wonder if Knopfler has some particular dislike of Cowell, they couldn't be on more opposite ends of the musical spectrum - Knopfler's music is thoughtful, original, talented, creative work, whilst that of Cowell's many acts is bland, unoriginal, uninspiring mass produced crap.

That's just my thoughts anyway, feel free...
