Street-wise pigeon
We see you camp
On the sidewalk
But we don't hear you anymore
Where did you lose your voice?
And how did you lose the trees?
Did they make your tangled feathers glow?
Did they let your tattered chest flow?
From the blatant backs of buildings
Where stagnant airs heat in the sun
From the blatant backs of buildings
Where stagnant airs heat in the sun, heat in the sun
So we put our curtains up
And ignore the sounds that break walls down
So we put our curtains up
And ignore the sounds that break walls down, break walls down
Do your potted plants
Really keep you company?
Do your potted plants
Really keep you company?
