I'm a restless bird and I'm
just trying to catch my flight
But it seems these wings are always
buckling from all of my weight
And no matter how I try
I just can't get myself back home
So I'm hoping I'm never alone
'cause I'd rather be the blackbird
than have to be the magpie
'cause the blackbird is singing the song
when the magpie never knows where he belongs
What's the use in flying now
when all we do is keeping falling down?
There is something to be said for trying
even if we never get a flew ground
And no matter how I try
I just can't get off soling ground
So I'm hoping someday I will find
'cause I'd rather be the blackbird
than have to be the magpie
I'd rather be the blackbird
than have to be the magpie
'cause the blackbird is singing the song
when the magpie never knows where he belongs
What does he care if he's never loved
The magpie's heart is made of hardest stuff
Yeah why should he care if he's never loved
The magpie's heart is made of hardest stuff
Yeah why should he care if he's never loved
The magpie's heart is made of hardest stuff
than this Oh than this
Oh than this
Oh than this
'cause I'd rather be the blackbird
than have to be the magpie
I'd rather be the blackbird
than have to be the magpie
'cause the blackbird is singing the song
when the magpie never knows where
where he belongs
I'm a restless bird and I
just trying to catch my flight
