I wish I was a bird yeah
Cos then I would be free
There'd be no one to hold me down
No wall would bother me
But no matter if I can't fly
I'm still at the mercy
The rules of mother nature
Are not kindness but cruelty
My life's on an island
That I got to leave behind
I'm waiting for that opening
I'm away in a straight line
But well laid plans won't win no fans
Nature makes all the waves
The orderly majority
Got their minds numbed in the haze
Oh yeah
This bird's got to fly
Any way I can
Up in to the sky
Wish me luck
Bon Voyage
I'll drop you a line
Cos this bird's gotta fly
But now if you're happy
Then why should you change
Parental expectation
Just to go your own way
But in the time of famine
The devil will feed on flies
The flood is coming on its way
And this bird's gotta fly
Oh yeah
This bird's got to fly
Any way I can
Up in to the sky
Wish me luck
Bon Voyage
I'll drop you a line
Cos this bird's gotta fly
Oh yeah
This bird's got to fly
Any way I can
Up in to the sky
Wish me luck
Bon Voyage
I'll drop you a line
Cos this bird's gotta fly
