Feathers in the Beat

Up on the wire, they plot and they stare Dropping their troubles, without a single care Everywhere I go, it's like they're following me I try to shoo them away, but they just won't let me be [Pre-Refrain] Barely had a bite before the swarm descended My patience and my bread, they both got upended [Refrain] I just came to rant I just came to rant I just came to rant I just came to rant I just came to rant [Bridge] I see the birds fly up high Feathers in the sky, they mock me from above Droppin’ their ‘gifts’, man, ain’t that love? I feel the beat, try to shake ‘em off in dance They circle around, like it's some kind of romance [Pre-Refrain] They’re in my hair, it’s a feathery invasion Sanity and peace, both lost in translation [Verse 3] I'm at the park, they're in the zone Duckin' and dodgin', wish they'd leave me alone They're peckin' and pokin', it's a relentless attack I just wanted some quiet, now I gotta fight back [Pre-Refrain] Sold my soul to the scarecrow brigade Traded my joy for a hand grenade Now I can't sit down, gotta keep on moving The beats are thumping, my troubles they're soothing I toss breadcrumbs, a deceptive chance Lead 'em away, find freedom in the dance [Refrain] I just came to dance away the rant I just came to dance away the rant
