Birds are cattle of the sky
They graze on heaven's lawn
A mile high
They have their heads in the clouds
Why bother bringing them down?
Why, oh why?

Oh, I've seen everything new
From a bird's eye view
From the clouds
Now that I know all that I've missed
Gonna make it harder to live
On the ground

The world is their nest
And the sun is their call
And like a sleeper's chest
It rises and falls
Oh to be, be so easily moved
A worm is a wet dream
From a bird's eye view

But now I've seen everything new
From a bird's eye view
From the clouds
Now that I know all that I've missed
Gonna make it harder to live
On the ground

Birds are cattle of the sky
They graze on heaven's lawn
A mile high

But now I've seen everything new
From a bird's eye view
From the clouds
Now that I know all that I've missed
Gonna make it harder to live
On the ground

Oh, I've seen everything new
From a bird's eye view
From the clouds
Now that I know all that I've missed
Gonna make it harder to live
On the ground
