Strange Bird — текст песни (Jimmy Buffett)

Strange bird

By: jimmy buffett, jay oliver

1989

Half fast and seldom seen

He dont blip the radar screen

On the deck below the dune

Under the commanders moon

Strange bird from a different nest

Flying low not like all of the rest

God only knows where the strange bird goes when hes flying



Everybodys trying to find him

But they dont know where to start

The ornithologist lady says that he has wings on his heart



Chorus:

Strange bird from a different nest

Flying low not like all of the rest

If you cant catch him you cant name him

If you cant see him you cant claim him

Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down

Wings on his heart, hes a strange bird



Frequent flyer, seldom seen

High above the caribbean

In my day Ive met a few but hes the strangest bird thats true



Chorus:

Strange bird from a different nest

Flying low not like all of the rest

If you cant catch him you cant name him

If you cant see him you cant claim him

Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down

Wings on his heart, hes a strange bird



But hes in love with the lady of the waters

And she lives somewhere up around cheauxvan

Hes gonna circle high above her runway of love

Until she gives him her permission to land



Chorus:

Strange bird from a different nest

Flying low not like all of the rest

If you cant catch him you cant name him

If you cant see him you cant claim him

Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down

Wings on his heart, hes a strange bird

Watch out girl, hes a strange bird



Strange bird flying low

cross the gulf of mexico

Strange bird not like all the rest

Watch out girl hes a strange bird

Shoot you down, hes a strange bird

Its a bird, its a plane, its a strange bird
