[Verse 1]
City bird, haven't you heard?
Hasn't anybody told you?
The city blocks can't hold you
Your place is in the sky, how can I show you?

[Verse 2]
City bird, haven't you heard
Of the boundlessness of your freedom?
The sky is your blue kingdom
You neglect your wings like you don't need them

[Chorus]
City bird, maybe these hands that feed you, need you
Maybe you understand that, city bird

[Bridge]

[Chorus]
City bird, maybe these hands that feed you, need you
Maybe you understand that, city bird

[Verse 1]
City bird, haven't you heard?
Hasn't anybody told you?
The city blocks can't hold you
Your place is in the sky, how can I show you?
