Prefab Sprout - Nightingales lyrics

rate me

That we're too busy living through, too busy to see.

What is it that we do makes us what we are

If we sing are we nightingales, shine are we stars ?

Who are we ? what we got ? are we a firework show ?

Growing pale like a star that burnt out years ago

Stranger things have been, stranger things have gone,

I find it hard right now to name you one

Tell me do something true and drop the fairytales.

If singin' birds must sing, with no question of choice

Then livin' is our song, indeed our voice

Best agree you and me we're probably nightingales

- instrumental verse -

Who are we ? what we got ? are we a firework show ?

Growing pale like a star that burnt out years ago

Stranger things have been, stranger things have gone,

I find it hard right now to name you one

Tell me do something true and drop the fairytales.

If singin' birds must sing, with no question of choice

Then livin' is our song, indeed our voice

Best agree you and me we're probably nightingales

God's a proud thundercloud we are cartoon cats

With a fear that is biblical under our hats

Who are we ? what we got ? are we a firework show ?

Growing pale like a star that burnt out years ago

Stranger things have been, stranger things have gone,

I find it hard right now to name you one

Tell me do something true and drop the fairytales.

If singin' birds must sing, with no question of choice

Then livin' is our song, indeed our voice

Best agree you and me we're probably nightingales
