Nick Cave Blue Bird Lyrics

Blue Bird Lyrics

I got a blue bird, a blue bird on my shoulder 
I got a blue bird, a blue bird on my shoulder 
I saw her standing, standing by the water 
She was naked, her hair in great disorder 
And I know that I fly and the rest is lie 
I sent a warning, a warning of disaster 
I sent a warning, I warned of great disaster 
I sent that blue bird, a blue bird down the water 
I sent that blue bird, floating down the water 
And I know that I fly and the rest is lie 
Hold me, hold me, hold me close
