Birds Are Singing Deep Within The Greenery

Here they come, the smothering dimensions
Come the usual low expectations
Talk talking about the amounts you drink
Perversely amused watching your world sink
Got your number, got your address, got you
A way of knowing what is always for the best
Could I make you happy I would stay put
If I make you miserable I shut up

Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery

They are your friends but this is more true: lose
them before their peace invades and kills you
Go to where you know you're basically loved
Go to where you're allowed to rise above
Been a while since anyone came around
They only come when they are equally low
After all you never were the one who says no
A streak they despise when they're on terms with life

Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery

Everybody's got that loving feeling
but most need a forensic to find it
With friends like that who needs swimming lessons
Pocket full of rocks and life guard absent
You're the anecdote, the pun and the joke
One who makes them feel fit to reproduce
Yes boss, not on the list, receptionist
No, I have not done it yet, not on it

Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery

Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
Birds are singing deep within the greenery
