Atticus Blue - Foxes Lyrics

Rise and shine to the darkness in my home
The trees outside are trembling in the cold
I pick up the pieces of my heart and hope
You should've seen my surprise when I looked out my window

Foxes on the roof in my backyard
Resting their bones for the day
There must've been 3 or 4 of them with their sunrise coats turned grey
One looked hungry and one looked tough
One looked to me like a month old pup
So I'll put some food out on a plate
And hope they don't go away

Fast forward 3 months they're at my door
Every evening back for more
Bagheera, Baloo and Mogly
Lost in a jungle of concrete
It's funny cos I know how it feels
Always fighting for you next meal
So I guess I'm not that different from the

Foxes on the roof in my backyard
Resting their bones for the day
There must've been 3 or 4 of them with their sunrise coats turned grey
One looked hungry and one looked tough
One looked to me like he'd all grown up
So I'll put some food out on a plate
And hope they don't go away

But one day I woke up and its like something felt so wrong
So I went to my window but my furry friends were gone
Something tells me I don't need to worry anymore
But that won't stop me checking every morning for the

Foxes on the roof in my backyard
Coming home for the day
I wish I could see them all again just to know that they're okay
So if you're hungry or down on luck
And you need something to pick you up
I'll put some food out on a plate
You'll always have somewhere to stay
