JF: Here we go. So, um this song is, uh, actually I think we actually recorded this song 5 years before we did the Flood album. This was just like, a song that was from the original issue of stuff. So, um you're not, are you going to play the accordion on this one or no? I think I told Iggy you were going to play accordion so. JL: Ok. JF: Just for slickness sake, I should tell him now that you're not. Don't turn the light on over there. It'll look bad. Alright, so here we go. Ready fellas? I'll never know what you'll find when you open up your letter box tomorrow 'Cause a little bird never tells me anything I want to know She's my best friend, she's a sparrow And I'll never never know what you never never never want to know When you know what you are, O If I had a pair of eyes on the back of my head for each time You forgot to take out all the things you forgot to talk about When you took a bite out of my spine I would have a lot of eyes on me by this time, wouldn't I? Wouldn't that just be fine? Too late or soon to make noise about love and there's no time for sorrow Run around in the rain with a hole in the brain till tomorrow I'll never know what you'll find when you open up your letter box tomorrow 'Cause a little bird never tells me anything I want to know She's my best friend, she's a sparrow And I'll never never know what you never never never want to know When you know what you are, O |
