Mockin’ Bird Songtext
von Tindersticks

(By tom waits)

Mockin′ bird, high in the tree
Looks like you've got the best of me
Mockin′ bird, singing a song
Well, mockin' bird is mocking me now that you're gone
Mocki′n bird, on top of my roof
Blowin′ notes on top of my roof
Mockin' bird singing a song
Well, mockin′ bird is mocking me now that you're gone


Mockin′ bird, high in the tree
I'm looking up at you, you′re looking down at me
Mockin' bird, singing a song
Well, the mockin' bird is mocking me now that you′re gone
Throw up some papers, try to scare him away
Look down at me, this what he says. . .
Mockin′ bird, high in the tree
Looks like you've got the best of me
Mockin′ bird, singing a song
Well, the mockin' bird is mocking me now that you′re gone
