Like a bird on the wire Like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free Like a worm on a hook Like a knight from some old-fashioned book I have saved all my ribbons for thee If I have been unkind I hope that you can just let it go by If I have been unture I hope you know it was never to you Like a baby, stillborn I have torn everyone who reached out for me But I swear by this song And by all that I have done wrong I will make it all up to thee Don't acquire more …… I say don't acquire anymore…… Like a bird on the wire Like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free
