Leaving the Nest (It’s A Long Way Down) Lyrics by Benjy Ferree

Leaving the Nest

0

In the morning birds are storing
Far being worms to their babes
Screaming, "Mama!" over the ledge
Angry about their names
Soon they all will be leaving
Before the man comes home
And everyone that's gone
Soon they will be no more
The rain is coming
The fields are a mess
Its all a joke on your missed trends
Don't know when their coming
Don't know if they will
Borrow some money, and pay your pimp
Long, long way down very high up
Long, long way to the ground very high up
Very High up. High up
From the ground it looks like eagles
To others it smells like planes
Cover up the gasoline
If it sparks it goes up in flames
The eagles are soaring
So please look your best
Its all's a joke on your missed trends
Don't know when they're coming
Don't know if they will
Borrow some money and pay your pimp
Its a long long way down very high up
Its a long long way to the ground very high up
Very High up. High Up
From the ground it looks like eagles
To others it smells like planes
Cover up the gasoline
If it sparks it goes up in flames
The eagles are soaring
So please look your best
Its all's a joke on your missed trends
Don't know when they're coming
Don't know if they will
Borrow some money and pay your pimp
Its a long long way down very high up
Its a long long way to the ground very high up
Very High up. High Up
