Birds fly off the handle
Every morning without a warning
They told me a different story
Than every other, than every other man
Flitter, just flatter
Doesn't point to the matter here at hand
We're circlin', we're circlin'
'Cause you're the one who's supposed to land
Tell it to me straight
We don't want to wait for you to settle down
Tell it to me straight
We shouldn't have to wait for you to come around
Go on, pull out the Parisian rug
From under our feet
Just because of your heat
Pull tight the curtain around those cages
Like we couldn't see
You give no dignity
Flitter, just flatter
Doesn't point to the matter here at hand
We're circlin', we're circlin'
'Cause you're the one who's supposed to land
Tell it to me straight
We don't want to wait for you to settle down
Tell it to me straight
We shouldn't have to wait for you to come around
Tell it to me straight
We don't want to wait for you to settle down
Tell it to me straight
We can't afford to wait for you to come around
No
You can't stop the sun from shining
Truth will always, always show
Fools think they can keep on runnin'
But in the end we all will know
You can't stop the sun from shining
Truth will always, always show
Fools think they can keep on runnin'
But in the end we all will know
You can't stop the sun from shining
Truth will always, always show
Fools think they can keep on runnin'
But in the end we all will know
You can't stop the sun from shining
Truth will always, always show
Fools think they can keep on runnin'
But in the end we all will know
So tell it to me straight
We don't want to wait for you to settle down
Tell it to me straight
We can't afford to wait for you to come around
