About a Bird

There's a bird at my window

She's watching it all

She sells what I'm doing

She's hoping I'll fall

There's a bird in the bush

And there's one in my hand

Lay waste to her head

It's a game to me

I live dangerously

I want it all

But I cannot pay the bill

Ohhh take a chance on me

Because no one else will

Ohhh please take a chance on me

I tried to hide in the hole

There's a hole in my head

I broke clean her feathers

Now she's sick in my bed

There's a bird at my funeral

She's singing out loud

How the tears on her pillow

Won't heal her scars

It's a game to me

I live dangerously

I want it all

But I cannot pay the bill

Ohhh take a chance on me

Because no one else will

Ohhh take a chance on me

First she wanted me

Then she wanted me dead

First she wanted me

Then she wanted me dead

First she wanted me

Then she wanted me dead

First she wanted me

Then she wanted me dead

Solo

Deep down I know I cannot go

Ohhh take a chance on me

Can you please baby

Ohhh take a chance on me

Because nobody, nobody, I tell you mama

Ohhh take a chance on me

I'm good baby, I'm good, take a chance on me

Ohhh take a chance on me
