The birds and the fleas

here we go like a bird over the edge
we might fall or grow wings and fly instead
there we go and we're blind, blind as a bat
we're trying a little of this and a little of that

and it's christmas without the holy nativity
or a dentist with his mouth full of cavities

we're in jail, but there's no one guarding the door
and it's the police who keep us coming for more
so we'll explore, yeah we'll lift up every leaf
cause we wanna see why we can't see what's underneath

and there's a dream we're trying to build
there's a hole that we can't fill
when all your limbs are being pulled
how can you know which way to yield

well don't you go too far
you gotta know who you are
little baby don't you go to far
you gotta know know who you are
little baby don't, little baby don't

well don't you go too far
you gotta know who you are
little baby don't you go to far
just to know know who you are
little baby don't, little baby don't
