Tori Amos: rare & unreleased

Blue Bird Boogie

(unreleased song, 1983)

Lyrics by Tori Amos

Verse 1:

He heard about the birds
that flirt in Londontown
As soon as you land
We're never gonna let you down
She got her beak in your ear
Only long enough to say
We migrate south underground
Every night you can find us there
Every night we'll fly you in the air

Chorus:

Take the Blue Bird Boogie tonight
Take the Blue Bird Boogie tonight
It's got some pretty little women
Who'll show you what you're missin'
But you can't keep up with
What's she's doin' to ya
Squeezed in tight on the Blue Bird
Boogie tonight
Squeezed in tight on the Blue Bird
Boogie tonight

Verse 2:

Under your wing she's complementary
It's feeding time, Sweet Berries from Paris
Cover your head, you cannot come on
Leave me alone
Without proper
Attire
Every night you can find us there
Every night we'll fly you in the air

Chorus:

Take the Blue Bird Boogie tonight
Take the Blue Bird Boogie tonight
It's got some pretty little women
Who'll show you what you're missin'
But you can't keep up with
What's she's doin' to ya
Squeezed in tight on the Blue Bird
Boogie tonight
Squeezed in tight on the Blue Bird
Boogie tonight

Bridge:

Every night you can find us there
Every night we'll fly you in the air

Chorus:

Take the Blue Bird Boogie tonight
Take the Blue Bird Boogie tonight
It's got some pretty little women
Who'll show you what you're missin'
But you can't keep up with
What's she's doin' to ya
Squeezed in tight on the Blue Bird
Boogie tonight
Squeezed in tight on the Blue Bird
Boogie tonight
