Lyrics
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Boom boom boom boom bararoom boom boom
Boom boom boom boom bararoom boom boom
In the alarm of the morning
Sun cutting through cloud and branch
A quiet bird only sings
When she can hear herself
Twisting her head up, ears perked
Wind is making announcements again
Back in her nest she burrows
Holding in her song of sorrow
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Bada bada bada bada bada ba, Bada bada bada ba ba
Bada bada bada bada bada ba, Bada bada bada ba ba
Day doesn't slow it down, wait or make time
Around the land she flies
Radio and engine sounds crashing up
Never spare a measure for her song
Day doesn't slow it down, wait or make time
Around the land she flies
Radio and engine sounds crashing up
Never spare a measure for her song
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Come home, hold still, Listen to your blood simmer
Come home, hold still, Listen to your blood simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer
River lines are boiling
Centre one note roaring
Magic sound emerging
Crumpled heart unfolding
Many rumbles converging
Many rumbles converging
An overflow is coming
An overflow is coming
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~ Hey yey ey~
