Magpie (喜鹊) - Beth Orton

Magpie magpie

I'm sitting here watching the world go by

I wonder do you ever question why

Old crow old crow

I'm sitting here wondering what you know

You've seen more of the day than I could dream

I do not know what to tell you

I do not know what to say to you

I do not know what would set you free

But it's a hard hard ght

A hard hard ght

And I'm turning this one in

I'm turning this one in

I won't turn back I've seen the sun

I won't turn back not for anyone

I've seen the sign and I know what is mine

What a lie what a lie what a lie

What a lie what a lie looks like

What a lie what a lie what a lie

What a lie what a lie looks like

Blue jay blue jay

I don't think you mean quite what you say

I don't think you're the friend you claim to be

Old crow old crow

Won't you tell me please tell me please what you know

You've seen more of the world than I could dream

I do not know what to tell you

I do not know what to say to you

I do not know what would set you free

But it's a hard hard ght

A hard hard ght

And I'm turning this one in

I'm turning this one in

I won't turn back I've seen the sun

I won't turn back not for anyone

I've seen the sign and I know I am free

What a lie what a lie what a lie

What a lie what a lie looks like

What a lie what a lie what a lie

What a lie what a lie looks like

Silence me and I won't be here anymore

Silence me and I won't be here anymore

Silence me and I won't be here anymore

Silence me and I won't be here anymore
