lyrics

Verse 1
Down at the poultry shop
you can take your pick.
They’re putting on a circus
and each birdie’s got its trick.
Those beady eyes will find you
and pigeons wings will flap.
They bow down to the audience
and you can’t help but clap.

Chorus
Fly with the highway crew
if you’re tough enough.
You can do what they do.
Fly with the highway crew
if you’re tough enough.
You can do what they do.

Verse 2
Someone’s knocking door-to-door.
They give you what they’ve got.
Now one is two, and two is three.
The lesson has been taught.
Bob’s at the record store
flipping through the stacks.
The girl he likes is singing
for coins in a hat.

Chorus

Bridge
The crew
They croon

Instrumental

Verse 3 (half verse)
Half past ten, the sun is down.
Ships flying in the dark
But with me you see that she can
be, be, be, be
