Lyrics Bird In A Box - Adrian Belew

Bird In A Box

I’m not a free lunch box car parked in the seat
Dead-end streetcar of desire caught by the tailpiece
I’m a jiffy pop tarts are bad for your teen-aged beef
There’s a mando-Linda Evans talking on the
Phone call a Porter Wagoner tailor-made underwear
Every dog has his Dayton Ohio Hitler
Says to button your fly Tijuana place a Bette Midler
Oh drop dead lock stock and bugle coral reefer man
Every Marlon Brando gave him a great big handstand
What a lumpy Guy lumbago embargo fish pants
Is there a Groucho Marxist doctrine in the
House calls about a lost set of Keystone cops out
The same way you came in through the bathroom wind-
Oh look!
a rock’n’roller skate and all skate slowly
Hey man a T-bone state of the aren’t
You gonna finish your bird in a box
Hey man your witness to the stand still
Shoulder to shoulder the burden a box
Hey man and even Colonel Sanders' daddy
Was a Thunderbird in a box
Loose tooth three of a perfect paradiced onions cheese
And beans from another planeteri gargoyle change
Every two thousand smiled at
Linda Evans called again singing happy birthmark
