Rain bird dives throught the hole
In a broken guitar
Rain bird sings a song so sad in blue
Like a stranded insect
Stuck in a bowl of glue

He tries to fly
But he will die

Rain bird swoops through the
Chimney pots and rain
Rain bird flies to the edge of a gilded cage
Hiding in the spotlights
Of a famous stage

He tries to become invisible

When you were a boy

You used to wish for this

But like the cat who turns his nose
Bsus2
Up at the dish

                    Bsus2
Now that you have it
You want to give it away

- no chord
When you had to work so hard
Slogging for a pittance
In a boot and shoe yard

                     Bsus2
That's when you wanted
What you now give away

You're all the rage, bird
