Hey little bluebird
Let me tell you a story.
Please shush it's mine,
Your voice is too soft
Your voice is too harsh
Hey little bluebird
Let me tell you about my day.
But what do you think,
No, wait I don't want to know.
Hey little bluebird
What is the matter?
I told all my friends
Just how beautifully you sing,
So why do you scream?
What do you mean?
Hey little bluebird
I cleaned your cage
I changed your water
And gave you food.
I bought you into my world,
Why can't I hold you?
Why don't you love me?
Hello Jailer
I want to be free
I want to find my own food
Find my own water
Why do you keep me locked away?
Hello jailer
I sing a song to pass the time
It is not for you
Or your friends
Unless, of course
It is the fee to be set free
Then I will sing you every song I know
Hello Jailer
You may not touch me
For your hand's smell of death
And the words you speak
Deafening poison
Infecting me every chance you get
Hello Jailer,
I am unhappy
I scream for help
Whenever I find the strength
You say you don't understand
And I no longer blame you
For as long as you have me trapped
I need your food
I need your water
I need your misguided care
I need you but I do not love you.
Hey little bluebird
You will never leave me,
Right?
Right.
