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