lyrics

I have these birds in cages

Of colours, shapes and sizes

I’ve bred them over ages

And fed them every crisis

I had the keys to free them,

But I fed them to the birds.

I also fed my freedom,

Every movement, every word.

I’m a hopeless nutcase

Frantic, moody, blurry love-dazed

With a compact broken suitcase

And papers still I’ve left to fold

Chasing after fire

Burning fingers for desire

Breaking bone and climbing higher

A blade without a hilt

I’ll break this cast to save me

From all the dirt that builds

Keep scraping off the chutney

And burning all the bills

I’m a hopeless nutcase

Frantic, moody, blurry love-dazed

With a compact broken suitcase

And papers still I’ve left to fold

Chasing after fire

Burning fingers for desire

Breaking bone and climbing higher

A blade without a hilt (x5)
