Pretty child your eyelashes   Whippin through the rain   Wishin' you were waterproofed   Wishin' you could prove   That pretty place in a little box inside      The black streamin down your cheeks   Stay out stay back stay black kitty cat black   Pushin thirty-five under an answer blanket   Pretty child your eyelashes      The boy is a bird, the boy is a bird   The boy is a bird   The boy is always a much prettier bird   Than any old girl bird      He took his time in the mirror this mornin'   Shades of light green, deep blue and just a touch of rouge   It's funny how easy it is to lose   And all you're left with is chaos and a dirty face      Look at me, I'm far from home   I'm testing waters with a broken wing   I'm weightless   Underwater I can fly, underwater I can fly      The boy is a bird, the boy is a bird   The boy is a bird,   The boy is always a much prettier bird   Than any old girl bird      Just take your time, baby   You don't have to be rushin' around   Just go on in the bathroom   And wash your face, dear, you look puffy
