A Marvelous End to the featherless Peacock Songtext
von Bovine Nightmares

You′re sly and quite the view
Waving eyes of painted blue
And I can't be under you
Even though you′re always over me

The plume you blare is a scrim for the crowd
Your façade of beauty is a liar's shroud
The glory, the crown, they're all your size
The masquerade is over, reveal the prize
The prize

Fall into your cape
Enthralled with mouths agape
A small dose of gallantry
Part of the pain is your puppetry


Your eerie eyes weep pools of pain
Your paper heart is out in the rain
And just in case you couldn′t care less
This threat should leave you feeling featherless
Care less
Careless

Birdie where are your wings
You fly like a rock
And like a rock - A proud peacock
You shall sink - Who will notice
To the depths of hell itself - Those who pluck you to the bone

Your eerie eyes weep pools of pain
Your paper heart is out in the rain

Your eerie eyes weep pools of pain
Your paper heart is out in the rain
And just in case you couldn′t care less
This threat should leave you feeling featherless
Nevertheless
Underdressed
A little birdie unknown

Bye Bye Birdie
