| A little bird told me late last night
|
| If I hold my breath and do everything right
|
| You might come back
|
| If I colour my hair and I wear it down
|
| And I make you laugh like a circus clown
|
| You might come back
|
| And a little bird said with a wink of an eye
|
| If I beg real hard and I do not cry
|
| You might come back
|
| If I keep my opinion under my breath
|
| And I only bring it out when the master says
|
| You might come back
|
| Chorus:
|
| But I don’t want you that bad
|
| No I don’t want you that bad
|
| Well a little bird told me as plain as day
|
| If I change my name and I change my way
|
| You might come back
|
| If I sell my soul for the greater cause
|
| If I burn my records and I listen to yours
|
| You might come back
|
| And the little bird said in the middle of a dream
|
| If I shut my mouth and I don’t make a scene
|
| You might come back
|
| If I cross my fingers and I curl my toes
|
| If I look like the other girls everybody knows
|
| You might come back
|
| Chorus
|
| But I don’t want you that bad
|
| No I don’t want you that bad
|
| No I don’t want you that bad
|
| No I don’t want you that bad
|
| Well a little bird told me A little bird told me A little bird told me A little bird told me A little bird told me A little bird told me A little bird told me A little bird told me |
