Painted Bird lyrics

by

Siouxsie and the Banshees



[Verse 1]
On lead-poisoned wings
You try to sing
Freak beak shrieks are thrown
At your confusing hue
The peac*ck screaming eyes
Show no mercy
Oh, no mercy

[Chorus]
Painted bird
It's absurd
Just a tainted bird
Hurting their twisted nerve
Painted bird
It's absurd
Just a tainted bird
Hurting their twisted nerve
Painted bird

[Verse 2]
The flock will make you choke
On this sadistic joke
And the whippoorwills
They make a din
In laughing unison
You're hitchc*ck carrion
In laughing unison
You're hitchc*ck carrion, carry on
[Chorus]
Painted bird
It's absurd
Just a tainted bird
Hurting their twisted nerve
Painted bird
It's absurd
Just a tainted bird
Hurting their twisted nerve
Painted bird

[Bridge]
I hear your sorrow
Maybe tomorrow
You'll lose your sorrow
When a fated weather will cleanse away
That painted feather
And all that sorrow, sorrow, sorrow
Ooh

[Verse 3]
A coquette in fur
Purr for the painted bird
Confound that dowdy flock
With a sharp-honed nerve
Because we're painted birds
By our own design
By our own design
And there's no more sorrow, sorrow, sorrow
[Chorus]
Have you heard
About the painted bird
Just a tainted bird
Hurting their twisted nerve
We've lost our sorrow
Now it's tomorrow-morrow
No need to hide your feather
Until a fated weather
No more sorrow, sorrow
We've lost our sorrow
Now we're painted birds
Mocking that twisted nerve
Painted birds
It's absurd
