                 Birds Don't Need Money...

I'd love to be a bird (although it might sound funny!)
To soar unfettered through the sky, be it cold or sunny,
To have nothing to tie me down, no things I 'have to do'
To go where'er I want to go, up into the big blue...

I'd love to be a bird, no cares, no chores (no clothes!)
The toughest choice I'd face would be which worm to eat, I s'pose!
I'd revel in my aerial skills, do barrel rolls and stuff,
And then I'd have my singing voice, as if that weren't enough!

I'd love to be a bird, I'd fly around all day
And have freedom unlimited, it seems the only way.
I'd fly around the country seeing sports events for free
And laugh at those who pay to get a worse view through TV!

I'd crap on people, all these things, then do them all again
And have no need for anything (why, not even this pen!)
Yes, I'd love to be a bird (does it still sound so funny?!?)
No hurt, no heartache and what's more, I'd have no need for money....
