Here they come, the smothering dimensions   Come the usual low expectations   Talk talking about the amounts you drink   Perversely amused watching your world sink   Got your number, got your address, got you   A way of knowing what is always for the best   Could I make you happy I would stay put   If I make you miserable I shut up      Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery      They are your friends but this is more true: lose   them before their peace invades and kills you   Go to where you know you're basically loved   Go to where you're allowed to rise above   Been a while since anyone came around   They only come when they are equally low   After all you never were the one who says no   A streak they despise when they're on terms with life      Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery      Everybody's got that loving feeling   but most need a forensic to find it   With friends like that who needs swimming lessons   Pocket full of rocks and life guard absent   You're the anecdote, the pun and the joke   One who makes them feel fit to reproduce   Yes boss, not on the list, receptionist   No, I have not done it yet, not on it      Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery      Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery   Birds are singing deep within the greenery
