The Birds Up There

from Le Chronique by The Crymuscles

/

about

I wrote this song when I was 19, and have played it with various folks ever since: David Whitten, David Gluck, Amy Cooper, Kacey Johansing. This version was an effort to sound smooooth, an emotion hitherto absent from the Peck corpus...

lyrics

I am hanging by two arms
from the edge of a building
but it won't be too long
before I make some friends with the birds up there

mid day sun above my head
sparkles on the side walk
and the people down below
they're lookin' like the worker ants they are

feet tap in rhythm
swingin arms and legs
men and women
going someplace
