Lyrics
Original Source:LyricWiki
Like a bird, like a bird on a wire
Like a drunk, in a midnight choir
I have tried, in my way to be free
Like a worm, like a worm on a hook
Like a man, in an old fashioned book
I have saved, all my ribbons for you

If I've...If I've been unkind
Then I hope, you'll just let it pass on by
Like a baby, like a baby still born
Like a beast, like a beast with its horns
I have torn everyone that reached out for me

And I saw a beggar, he was leanin' on his wooden crutch
Then he said to me, "Tom, dont you ask for so much"

Like a bird, Like a bird on a wire
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free
