The Bird and Dog Lyrics by Oh Bummer!

To Be a Part of the World EP

2023

[Verse 1]
You know it don't mean a thing
You've said it too many times
So there's nothing you could say
I'll just assume it's a lie
I don't wanna speak
I don't wanna move
I don't wanna love you too soon
Got a lotta weight
I'm afraid I'll break
If I don't do something soon
I don't wanna sleep
I don't wanna blink
I don't dream of you
The bird never learned to fly
And the dog never learned to break the rules
[Chorus]
In my dreams
I can see real love
Waking up my heart
Was it all made up?
Doesn't feel right to me anymore
[Verse 2]
I know it don't mean a thing
I've said the same many times
So I don't know what to say
Everything I do you'll just assume
That it's a lie I won't even try
What a waste of yours
What a waste of mine
Never learned to fly
But I learned to dig
And I do it best
When I'm in my head
So I think I stay
'Til they find me dead
With a note attached
In my bloody hands
Sayin' that the dog never learned to hunt
And the bird never learned to land
[Chorus]
In my dreams
I can see real love
Waking up my heart
Was it all made up?
Doesn't feel right to me anymore
[Verse 3]
It was a grey summer's day
A pretty little bird
Dropped a letter in my box
With a word
Song smooth as milk
Soft as honey
Rain clouds in the town
Smile sunny
Met up for a stack of pancakes
Kept it cute with the handshake
Caught a flight and feelings
I was gone hella damn days
Came back to a damn babe
Stopped me my tracks
Man, stayed
Built a nest
And a dream, with the bird
Thought we had damn plan made
I wanted it to be perfect
I couldn't see the red flags raised
We could'a used some discernment
But the dream got in the damn way and
Dreams, I'm just dreaming of you
Dreams, doesn't feel right to me anymore
