Birds Of Paradise Lyrics

Don't let the fear in
Don't let the hatred
through the door
And the fever, like a spider,
walk your skin
Can you still hear him?
Still preaching science
at the screen
While the doctors try to
cover the sin
Oh it's a mad world honey
And this crazy little man
keeps spinning it
and spinning it again
Don't let the fear in
Don't keep your naked
little heart, trapped,
beating in the cage it's in

We're just two cats sitting
on a hot tin roof
We're just two young hearts
running down the backstreets
like we never went to school
We're just soldiers fighting in a war
against our own advice
We're just birds of paradise

Beyond the white light
You don't know if heaven's
in your mind
And if hell is just a twinkle
in your eye
You've led a short life
Short from the moment
you were born
To the moment that the sun
filled the sky
Remember long nights honey? When we were kids and
love was ours to find
You've led a short life
Not even Valium can kill that
k k k k kick inside

We're just two cats
sitting on a hot tin roof
We're just two young hears
running down backstreets
like we never went to school
We're just soldiers fighting in a war
against our own advice
We're just birds of paradise

So hold on
I know sometimes this crazy world
can tear the flesh from our bones
Please hold on
And when sometimes
you're not yourself
be glad at least you're someone
Old Soldier
Lead us home

We're just two cats
sitting on a hot tin roof
We're just two young cats
running down the backstreets
like we neer went to school
We're just soldiers
fighting in a war
against our own advice
We're just birds of paradise
We're just birds of paradise
We're just birds of paradise
