Next the bird flew to the city
And saw two other birds, pecking on the ground.
The wind lifted them up, and then set them back down!

Bird, Bird
Bird bird, bird bird (repeat)
Ahhhhh (repeat)
That one is brown
And that one is red
And that one is brown
And that one is red
Bird bird, bird bird (repeat)
Ahhhhh (repeat)
Then a cat, it comes near
And the birds, the birds they scatter in fear-fear-fear-fear-fear-fear
Fear-fear-fear-fear-fear
‘Till the coast is clear
Bird bird, bird bird (repeat)
Ahhhhh (repeat)

Bang Bang Boys
Bang-bang boys, go, go, girls (repeat)
They think they get it right
They think, they get it right
Bang-bang boys, go, go, girls (repeat)
Meditate, recreate (repeat)
Bang-bang boys, go, go, girls (repeat)
He fell asleep in a tree and dreamed of a gigantic tree,
Irminsul,
That was holding up the whole world.
He dreamed of this gigantic tree
Right in the center of the forest.
The next morning, the bird woke up.

Next the bird met up with another bird, in the clouds
Who told him about a bird who had flown to the sun.
And the bird said, really, the most important thing for you
to know
Is that you were born.
The bird didn’t really want to fly to the sun ---
He hoped he would find Irminsul, some day.
But for now, he stayed with his friend, and they both
Tried to fly to the sun.

He Flew to the Sun
Didn’t want to go at night
Where the people sit and fight
Didn’t want to go out there
Tearing out each other’s hair
Uh oh ohh….
(repeat)
Left a trail up to the sun
Thought he’d be the only one
Found some other people there
Brushing out each other’s hair
Chorus He flew
to the sun (repeat)
If you go out at night
See the trail he left in flight
If you look into the air
Find some other places there (repeat)
Uh oh ohh……
(repeat)
(repeat verse)
He said it would be okay
Sushi places always stay
By that which you wrap in leaves
May you still remember me
Chorus He flew
to the sun (repeat)
To the, to the sun

Golden Hair
She didn't ask you for too much
She didn't ask you for the world
She didn't take too much for granted
To save her golden hair (repeat)
She didn't ask you for the world
She didn't have the time to spend
She just wanted what was there
To save her golden hair (repeat)
And couldn't you not blame her
For all the care she took
If she'd been outside looking in
She'd re-write all your books
She played your game so fair
To save her golden hair
And she would walk in your direction
She would launder your wallpaper
She would polish your furniture
Then take a hand and show her hair
But something inside, it couldn't reach her
Maybe each day it grew afar
Something was reaching closer to her
To save her golden hair (repeat)
And couldn't you not blame her
For all the care she took
If she'd been outside looking in
She'd re-write all your books
To save her golden hair (repeat)

We Are Not the Sun
(Cho.) We are not the sun (repeat)
The sun sits there, we orbit
The sun sits there, we spin
(Cho.) We are not the sun (repeat)
The sun is our energy metaphor
No one can claim the sun
As a scientist, toss the sun off my lip
All energy that comes here is consumed
Only by us
We are not the sun, we simply use all energy
That comes
From the sun
(Cho.) We are not the sun (repeat)

Like an Egg
That place I go...
Oh, you'll say hello (repeat)
As you walk on by
Through caverns, streets and skies
Through elevators' lies
Oh, to that place I know
Where the streets are empty
Just carnival doors
And dolls they keep inside
They want me to pass on by
But they want something more inside
It's like an egg, it goes high (repeat)
Oh, you'll say hello as you
Walk on by
Cho. It's like an egg, it goes high (repeat)
So high, so high in the sky (repeat)
And when the street lamps are low
And all the orange glow
The carnival changes sides
And they line up for their dinner in the light
It's like an egg, it goes high (repeat)
Oh, I'm back in the carnival show
Where no-one's watching
Just the carnival row, with doors
And dolls inside
Could be I know
But I've got to go
Cho. It's like an egg, it goes high (repeat)
So high, so high in the sky (repeat)

I Had a Little Piggie, But I Didn't Know How Clean
I had a little piggie, but I didn't know how clean
I washed that little piggie till its fur did fairly gleam

Lisa Lights Candles
Lisa lights candles for every boy
Lisa lights candles for every boy
They think they can find Lisa there inside
Lisa lights a candle, then she runs and hides
Will they know when they see her?
Will they know when they find her?
Will they know just to meet her
But it's too soon, to tell
Lisa lights candles for every boy (repeat)
They think they can find Lisa there inside
Lisa lights a candle, then she runs and hides, hides, hides
