300 Birds (Quota) Lyrics by Guided by Voices

Suitcase 3: Up We Go Now

2009

It's all in a hunter’s day
The way he looks through the sky
Tells everybody to get away
And he's sure to bring home
300 birds
300 birds a day
Quota
And I figure that if you look back on your life
That you've made mistakes just the same as anyone, anyone, anyone
And I’ve made mistakes just like the hunter
But I've had my day
And my day will come again
Oh, it will
And that's the day
I'll make my claim on the world
To be laid/ late
I want three hundred birds in a day
That's my goal in life
That's my goal, says he
