The Birdman/Carnival

Lyrics

Hopelessly the man starts to feed your day
Once he was there you never looked back
How do you think that his words might just fade away
He seemed harmless enough so you let him in and now you'll pay

I can't see him but he's stalking my thoughts, thoughts

How do you feel when you can't concentrate?
I just stare
And all of your daydreams are a seesaw for him to play on
How do you feel when he calls your name
And you plug your ears but it's not the same
Now do you know when he pulls you back?
Oh he pulls you back, back, back

Get it on, get it on, get it on, get it on

Nobody's wrong, nobody's right, the birdman wouldn't lie
Nobody's wrong, nobody's right, but I just can't trust him tonight

How do you forget a stranger that plagues your days
So we arm ourselves when there's nothing to fear
Right?
Wrong
And how do you feel when it comes to pass there's something there, but it's not quite right
Now do you know, does it make you mad? Does it make you fucking mad? Mad, mad

Get it on, get it on, get it on, get it on

Nobody's wrong, nobody's right, the birdman wouldn't lie
Nobody's wrong, nobody's right, its all on the outside

It's all on the outside

You know you're not a strong man
You're just about to cry
But you hang on, you hang on
'cause it's alright, it's alright

You worry about your future
The sign said "yoga class for cats"
It's alright, it's alright
It's no fun, it's no fun

The carnival closed down
The carnival closed down
The carnival closed down
Said the carnival closed down
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
My

The carnival closed down
The carnival closed down

I feel him, I feel him close
I feel him, I feel him, him, him, him close

But how do we find

Nobody's wrong, nobody's right, the birdman wouldn't lie
Nobody's wrong, nobody's right, but I can't trust him tonight, no

Nobody's wrong, nobody's right, the birdman wouldn't lie
Nobody's wrong, nobody's right, people, I know you people

Get it on, get it on, get it on, get it on
Get it on, get it on and on and on
Get it on, get it on, get it on, get it on
Get it on, get it on
