Solange - This Bird lyrics
[Solange - This Bird lyrics]
Once in a time where the
Girls feel like girls
And the world is painted cotton candy
Where the sweet lemonade of McGregor Street
Was the best damn thing of the summer breeze
Your dad drives a foreign car
And your mama looks like a beauty queen
Now the sour bitter days of a colorless place
Seems to light up my nights somehow
And the music I play must
Be loud, loud, loud, loud, loud as can be
So, I don’t have to hear myself think
So, I don’t have to wake up from this dream
I don’t wanna sing no single mama blues
I’m not singin', "Look at me
I’ve been abused"
Oh, I’m another silly lost
Girl staring at you
So, maybe I’ll put on my high heel shoes
And soar the night away
And soar the night away but whatever I do
I’m not gonna slow this bird down
I don't wanna look life in the eye
I'm not gonna fall face first in
The spiral called a life
I’m not in denial, I’m not suicidal
Not an alcoholic, I’m not out here hoeing
So, just shut the fuck up
This bird’s not slowing down
Once in a while when the Sun does it's job
Lets the clouds take a nice day off
I can breeze through the day
And just run through night
Hearing cheers come from those big blue eyes
His smile blazes like fireworks
On the evening of Fourth of July
So, I got reason to fly
I’m not gonna slow this bird down
I don't wanna look life in the eye
I don't wanna fall face first in
The spiral called a life
I’m not in denial, I’m not suicidal
Not an alcoholic, I’m not out here hoeing
So, just shut the fuck up
This bird’s not slowing down
Slowing down down, down, down, down
Slowing down down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down slowing down
It’s not over yet the song isn’t over yet
Ain’t no birds gonna slow me down
I’mma keep on rolling
And ain’t no birds gonna slow me down
Keep on rolling
And ain’t no birds gonna slow me down
I’mma keep on rolling
And ain’t no birds gonna slow me down
Girls feel like girls
And the world is painted cotton candy
Where the sweet lemonade of McGregor Street
Was the best damn thing of the summer breeze
Your dad drives a foreign car
And your mama looks like a beauty queen
Now the sour bitter days of a colorless place
Seems to light up my nights somehow
And the music I play must
Be loud, loud, loud, loud, loud as can be
So, I don’t have to hear myself think
So, I don’t have to wake up from this dream
I don’t wanna sing no single mama blues
I’m not singin', "Look at me
I’ve been abused"
Oh, I’m another silly lost
Girl staring at you
So, maybe I’ll put on my high heel shoes
And soar the night away
And soar the night away but whatever I do
I’m not gonna slow this bird down
I don't wanna look life in the eye
I'm not gonna fall face first in
The spiral called a life
I’m not in denial, I’m not suicidal
Not an alcoholic, I’m not out here hoeing
So, just shut the fuck up
This bird’s not slowing down
Once in a while when the Sun does it's job
Lets the clouds take a nice day off

Hearing cheers come from those big blue eyes

The spiral called a life
I’m not in denial, I’m not suicidal
Not an alcoholic, I’m not out here hoeing
So, just shut the fuck up
This bird’s not slowing down
Slowing down down, down, down, down
Slowing down down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down slowing down
It’s not over yet the song isn’t over yet
Ain’t no birds gonna slow me down
I’mma keep on rolling
And ain’t no birds gonna slow me down
Keep on rolling
And ain’t no birds gonna slow me down
I’mma keep on rolling
And ain’t no birds gonna slow me down
