"Birds" - Kate Nash

She was waiting at the station

He was getting off the train

He didnt have a ticket so he had to bum through the barriers again.

Well the ticket inspector saw him rushing through

He said girl you don't know how much I missed you but

We'd better run cos' I havent got the funds to pay this fine

She said fine.

Well so they ran out of the station and jumped onto a bus

With two of yesterdays travel cards and two bottles of Bud,

And he said you look well nice

Well she was wearing a skirt

And he thought she looked nice

And yeah, she didnt really care about anything else

Because she only wanted him to think that she looked nice,

And he did.

But he was looking at her, yeah all funny in the eye.

She said come on boy tell me what your thinking,

Now dont be shy.

He said alright, I'll try.

All the stars up in the sky and the leaves in the trees,

All the broken bits that make you trip up and grassy bits in between.

All the matter in the world is how much I like you.

She said what?

He said let me try and explain again.

Right, birds can fly so high, or they can shit on your head,

Yeah they can almost fly into your eye and make you feel so scared.

But when you look at them, and you see that they're beautiful,

That's how i feel about you.

She said what?

He said you.

She said what are you talking about?

He said you

She said thanks, I like you too.

He said cool.
