《The Plight of the Flightless Bird(From Let’s Get Ready to Crumble LP)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Plight of the Flightless Bird (From Let's Get Ready to Crumble LP) - Russian Futurists

[00:00:10] Hey did you ever know that songs are just some thick little words

[00:00:15] And that the aeroport is just a nest of big metal birds

[00:00:19] And they swoop in and out and steal us from each others' lives and

[00:00:24] Tear us apart like conjoined twins under a surgeon's knives

[00:00:28] An inch is a mile is a day

[00:00:32] And where you are is too far away

[00:00:37] Hey did you ever know that years are just slippery numbers

[00:00:42] And that I still get chills when I hear Paul sing golden slumbers

[00:00:47] Cause it reminds me of our house and how it used to snow there

[00:00:52] And lets me know that I can still skip town and end up nowhere

[00:00:56] An inch is a mile is a day

[00:00:59] And where you are is too far away

[00:01:04] And a drop is a puddle is a sea

[00:01:09] And that's further than I want to be

[00:01:13] And now I read you letters and they said someday

[00:01:19] We'll meet again on some empty runway

[00:01:23] And watch the planes they circle like peregrine

[00:01:28] Falcons do and carry us there again

[00:01:32] An inch is a mile is a day

[00:01:36] And where you are is too far away

[00:01:41] And a drop is a puddle is a sea

[00:01:45] And that's further than I want to be

[00:01:50] I sent a letter and it said someday

[00:01:55] We'll meet again on some crowded runway

[00:02:00] And watch the planes they circle like birds of prey

[00:02:05] And as you left I thought that I heard you say

[00:02:09] An inch is a mile is a day

[00:02:13] And where you live is too far away
