lyrics

THE BIRDS OF PARADISE


I dance to go with every lie
and I dance to go with every lie.
The bottle drinks my soul at night.
The bottle drachma soul at night.


I shot the birds of paradise
and I shot the birds of paradise,
to kiss the holes between their eyes.
And I shot the birds of paradise.


Us in the nick of time
and us in the nick of time.
Kimono incoming
and kimono in common.


Carrying paper bells
and carrying paper bells.
Carrying luggage
and carrying luggage.
A bobber made of van gogh's ear
and a bobber made of van gogh's ear.
Whaling inspiration
and whaling inspiration.


A paper sun.
Houseboats on the water,
The woman you love calls you,
sooty breath,
antique eyes.


Just in the nick of time
and just in the nick of time.
I shot the birds of paradise,
just in the nick of time.
