Costello, Katie - Songbird Lyrics
I've been told by many books and things
That I can read minds and I agree, at least in my dreams
I've been yelled at by many road-ragers
Making love to their coffee and pagers now, heading down south
And the world was in rhyme and it made sense for a short time
In this little tune about the old kazoo
Songbird, Songbird, whatever bird you are
Give me your voice and your flight
Songbird I don't care if you're an old kazoo
Sing to me and I will sing to you
I've been seen to be heartbroken
Not so much a heartbreaker but an "I love you,"
I've been known to be confused
By the colors and the shapes of our round little sphere,
On which we appeared
The lark was humming and softly I kept drumming
And the world was in rhyme and it made sense for a short time
In this little tune about the old kazoo
Songbird, Songbird, whatever bird you are
Give me your voice and your flight
Songbird I don't care if you're an old kazoo
Sing to me and I will sing to you
And then the Greek Muses and the sirens on the rocks
Told me they liked my song
And then the Greek Muses told the sirens on the rocks
Don't you dare touch those folks near those rocks
Don't you touch those folks near those rocks
Orpheus told me so
Songbird, Songbird, whatever bird you are
Give me your voice and your flight
Songbird I don't care if you're an old kazoo
Sing to me and I will sing to you
Sing to me and I will sing to you
Sing to me and I will sing to you

Costello, Katie Songbird Comments
is the studio version of old owl anywhere by katie costello?
she should be a star
The thing is if she got noticed, she'd be 'too mainstream.' She doesn't need fans to be her. She will make music regardless. (:
katie, you don't need the songbird to give you its voice, you're so amazing already <3(:
@awsumchicas I know. All these awesome Indie artists go completely unnoticed sometimes. It is rather frustrating, when people who listen to them know how much more desrving they are, when compared to other 'musicians'. but I have faith in her! I think she'll get famous..in her own time, and on her own terms!
Thank you for such a beautiful video(: !
