lirik lagu the figs (usa) - canary bird

[verse 1]
she used to dance in the gutter
found gold in the cold of a summer rain
had it all, had enough, didn’t need much anyway
she used to say, “when it’s over
i hope they laugh at the funeral”
guess i never thought like that
she used to glide on the water
oh, the wake and the waves must have taught her right
don’t it all come and go like the southern tides?
she used to live like a martyr
swore she felt strong in the harder times
guess i never thought like that

[chorus]
and she said
“i’ll carry the casket
i’ll carry you and the world”
when did we get so very ecclesiastic?
why do you sing, canary, canary bird?

[verse 2]
she’s older now, can you blame her?
stopped thinking out loud just to save her breath
gave it all, gave it all, now there’s nothing left
she’s finding out at the day’s end
good men get buried face~down
guess she never thought like that
[chorus]
when she said
“i’ll carry the casket
i’ll carry you and the world”
when did we get so very ecclesiastic?
why do you sing, canary, canary bird?

[verse 3]
and she’s talking to god
and she’s wondering why
this bridge she built fell in the great divide
she should know better now
but she’s still gotta try
without her here, who makes it out alive?

[bridge]
you can kick up the dirt
you can spit in the sky
brush the dust off your shoes
and close both your eyes
’cause it’s harder to feel
but it’s easy to find
locked in her cage, in an empty mind

[outro]
and he said
“i’ll carry the casket
i’ll carry you and the world”
when did you get so very ecclesiastic?
i’ll teach you to sing, canary, canary bird
