Pigeon Parade

We could skip work, and join in the pigeon parade
If I were a bird I'd be the general, shouting orders to the ranks below
The water is low, but morale is high
And no one can challenge me on my light post perch, my light post perch

Or maybe it's me and you, alone
Take your shoes off and feel the weight
Take, take your shoes off
Feel, feel the weight, the weight of the earth

Oh I see your eyes, reflected in the stars this is the night
I have cried but now the breeze is blowing life into your smile

In the pigeon parade no matter how strange every bird is a friend
I've got a collection of the finest things
Wrappers, a worm, two pine cones, piles of snow
Take a bite of a cloud as we drift away
And land for an early brunch on my light post perch, my light post perch

And baby it's me and you, alone
Take your shoes off and feel the weight
Take, take your shoes off
Feel, feel the weight, the weight of the earth

Oh I see your eyes, reflected in the stars this is the night
I have cried but now the breeze is blowing life into your smile
