Verse:
Growing up was just broken hearts and hand me downs
and dreaming out well beyond her means
Brand new families, sometimes a whole new town
But somewhere in that story she learned to sing

---

Chorus:
She’s a bird and she’s bouncing off the wires
because they love her pretty feathers and her song
And in here she has everything she’s ever needed
but they don’t give a damn bout what she wants

---

Verse:
She fell in love, to have to hold forever
but she knew his only ran skin deep
Turns out, none of us are all that clever
And she knows she might have sold herself off cheap

---

Chorus:
She’s a bird and she’s bouncing off the wires
because some old man loves her feathers and her song
And in here she has everything she’s ever needed
but he don’t give a damn bout what she wants

---

Chorus:
Just give me that birdsong x 2

---

Verse:
The crowd roars, there’s things that they don’t tell you
About when all your dreams come true on the stage
The crowd adores but their fickle love is fleeting
In the end a guilded cage is still a cage

---

Chorus:
She’s a bird and she’s bouncing off the wires
because we love her pretty feathers and her song
And in here she has everything she’s ever needed
but we don’t give a damn what she wants

---

Outro:
Just give us that birdsong 
Just give us that birdsong 
Just give us that birdsong
