A little bird told me late last night
If I hold my breath and do everything right
You might come back
If I color my hair and I wear it down
And I make you laugh like a circus clown
You might come back
And a little bird said with the wink of an eye
If I beg real hard and I do not cry
You might come back
If I keep my opinion under my breath
And I only bring it out when the master says
You might come back
But I don't want you that bad
No, I don't want you that bad
But a little bird told me as plain as day
If I changed my name and I change my way
You might come back
If I sell my soul for the greater cause
If I burn my records and I listen to yours
You might come back
And a little bird said in the middle of a dream
If I shut my mouth and I don't make a scene
You might come back
If I crossed my fingers and curl my toes
If I looked liked the other girls, everybody knows
You might come back
But I don't want you that bad
No, I don't want you that bad
No, I don't want you that bad
No, I don't want you that bad
Well, a little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
A little bird told me, a little bird told me
