Iron & Wine – Flightless Bird, American Mouth Lyrics

Artist: Iron & Wine
Song: Flightless Bird, American Mouth

I was a quick wet boy
Diving too deep for coins
All of your straight light eyes
Wide on my plastic toys

Then when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
Stole me a dog eared map
And called for you everywhere

Have I found you?
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
Or lost you?
American mouth

Big bill looming
Now I’m a fat house cat
Cursing my sore blunt tongue
Watching the warm poison rats

Curl through the wide fence cracks
Pissing on magazine photos
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean
Blood of Christ mountain stream

Have I found you?
Flightless bird, brown hair bleeding
Or lost you?
American mouth

Big bill, stuck going down
