I'm a restless bird and I'm just trying to catch my flight But it seems these wings are always buckling from all of my weight And no matter how I try I just can't get myself back home So I'm hoping I'm never alone 'cause I'd rather be the blackbird than have to be the magpie 'cause the blackbird is singing the song when the magpie never knows where he belongs What's the use in flying now when all we do is keeping falling down? There is something to be said for trying even if we never get a flew ground And no matter how I try I just can't get off soling ground So I'm hoping someday I will find 'cause I'd rather be the blackbird than have to be the magpie I'd rather be the blackbird than have to be the magpie 'cause the blackbird is singing the song when the magpie never knows where he belongs What does he care if he's never loved The magpie's heart is made of hardest stuff Yeah why should he care if he's never loved The magpie's heart is made of hardest stuff Yeah why should he care if he's never loved The magpie's heart is made of hardest stuff than this Oh than this Oh than this Oh than this 'cause I'd rather be the blackbird than have to be the magpie I'd rather be the blackbird than have to be the magpie 'cause the blackbird is singing the song when the magpie never knows where where he belongs I'm a restless bird and I just trying to catch my flight
