Lyrics

Mockingbird

Black sheep, too deep, can't sleep
let go, slow ride, low tide
couldn't hurt a fly

don't try to know
don't even try
actions spoke
too loud and much too bright

Be yourself or be loved, be yourself or be loved, be yourself, or be loved, be ...

insides, open wide, don't cry
too smart, apple cart
don't knock it till you've tried

try not to think
best not to feel so much
don’t you know, love?
you’ve got to shut up, or go

Be yourself or be loved, be yourself or be loved, be yourself, or be loved, be ...

Shoot the messenger if you don't want to hear the news
stay away from him if you don’t wanna catch the blues

nonsense, too intense
cover up your eyes
never look in the book
the cover will suffice

don’t glow, don’t shine, it’s a sin
mockingbird, never heard
he just blends right in
