Strange Bird - Jimmy Buffett
Half fast and seldom seen He don't blip the radar screen On the deck below the dune Under the commander's moon Strange bird from a different nest Flying low not like all the rest God only knows where the strange bird goes when he's flyin' Everybody's trying to find him But they don't know where to start The ornithologist lady says that he has wings on his heart CHORUS Strange bird from a different nest Flying low not like all the rest If you can't catch him, you can't claim him If you can't see him you can't name him Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down Wings on his heart, he's a strange bird His only home is in the skies Slicing through the cloudy pie Above the whole Caribbean Moves the swift amphibian CHORUS Strange bird from a different nest Flying low not like all the rest If you can't catch him, you can't claim him If you can't see him you can't name him Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down Wings on his heart, he's a strange bird Watch out girl, he's a strange bird But he's in love with the lady of the waters And she lives somewhere up around Cheauxvan He's gonna circle high above her runway of love Until she gives him her permission to land CHORUS Strange bird from a different nest flying low not like all the rest If you can't catch him, you can't claim him If you can't see him you can't name him Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down If you can't see him you can't claim him If you can't see him, you can't name him Stay on the ground or he will shoot you down Wings on his heart, he's a strange bird Strange bird flying low Cross the Gulf of Mexico Strange bird, not like all the rest Watch out girl, he's a strange bird Shoot you down, he's a strange bird It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a strange bird
