Blue Bird - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

I got a blue bird, a blue bird on my shoulder

I got a blue bird, a blue bird on my shoulder

I saw her standing, standing by the water

She was naked, her hair in great disorder

And I know that I fly and the rest is lie

I sent a warning, a warning of disaster

I sent a warning, I warned of great disaster

I sent that blue bird, a blue bird down the water

I sent that blue bird, floating down the water
