Married Monk Bird On Board
riding high in the sky
a huge carcass of metal and chattering
I met him on the flight to x
there was a strange event on board
we couldn't make out the best or worst of it
sleeping there in the air chair
was woken by a terrible fluttering
a scary shifting game
down below the coastal town
twinkling like a silver crown
oriental and lost
pulse me birdeo
wake up bad
pulse me birdeo
wake up bird
see the mapland, see the mapland
see the mapland, see the mapland
and it shifts and it shifts and it shifts and it shifts
in his hand he held an egg. he was an egg man. he made
a little hole with a needle oh so very gently and
dripped in poppers until the shell cracked and hell
hatched. a bird on board. something unpredictable. some
panicked beast of pray. I couldn't think of anything to
say. except :
I can see a spanking new red running track
(I can see a field of corn)
I can see a coastline and some waves at sea
(I can see a river winding up to nothing)
I can see a swimming pool big enough for a flea
I can see the supersonic sound barrier
I cannot see a simple tree
no power no power no power
then you have power
(repeat)
pain takes u 2 a higher plane
knock it out the sky or push it higher
force the flyer
then you have power
while the other was at home stealing ham or cold turkey
