Little Birdie Lyrics by Zach Vinson

Cracked Open

2008

[Verse 1]
Hey little birdie, won’t you come on back to the sidewalk
You know those cars, they come racing by
And they won’t stop to hear your lullabies
Hey little birdie, won’t you come on back to the sidewalk
Hey little darling as you walk on down to the bus stop
Did you see that birdie flap his wings
Before the car sprayed his guts over everything?
Hey little darling, did you weep on your way to the bus stop?
[Chorus]
All of my friends told me in that bird was much potential
But they never knew what I knew which is that I did not care
[Verse 2]
I told that birdie just to go on back to the sidewalk
But he didn’t hear me call his name
So I gave up and turned my head away
I told that birdie just to go on, go on back
I’m innocent of his blood, I think it’s great, can’t you see it’s fair
Naïveté cost him his life, thank goodness I’m not there
[Chorus]
All of my friends told me in that bird was much potential
And I wonder what if I was wrong, what if I should have cared (Oh well)
[Verse 3]
I told my brother just to crawl back on home to his mama
With his fists he made me shut my lips
But I did not cry, because I deserved it
My brother told me we must learn to walk home together
