High Llamas – Birdies Sing lyrics

list of names in the rain
this is what i was made for
politics in the sticks
why do sheepdogs
bite my arm
no-one's home down on Rosewood Farm

birdies sing, summer, winter and spring
what am i supposed to do
there's real contempt, not a penny gets spent
what am i supposed to do

'cause I'm always wet, my car breaks down
people forget who runs this town
i don't think they think much of me
i hate this town, this community

i'm driving round in my car
i'm Patrick Joseph the star
i'm driving round in my car
i'm Patrick Joseph the star

birdies sing, summer, winter and spring
what am i supposed to do
there's real contempt, not a penny gets spent
what am i supposed to do

well i'll show you round my constituency
there's a thousand cows and a thousand trees
the windmill is a charming sight
it's a painter's house, things just aren't right

i'm driving round in my car
i'm Patrick Joseph the star
i'm driving round in my car
i'm Patrick Joseph the star

birdies sing, summer, winter and spring
what am i supposed to do
oh birdies sing, summer, winter and spring
what am i supposed to do
oh birdies sing, summer, winter and spring
what am i supposed to do
birdies sing, summer, winter and spring
what am i supposed to do
