He [F] sang so loud, [C] sang so clear
[E7] I was afraid all the [Am] neighbours would hear
so I [F] invited him in just to [C] reason with him
I [E7] promised I wouldn't [Am] do it again
But he sang [F] louder and louder inside the house
and [C] now I couldn't get him out
so I [E7] trapped him under a cardboard box
and [Am] stood on him to make it stop
I [F] picked up the bird and above the din I said
[C] That's the last song you'll ever sing
[F] Held him down, broke his neck
[C] Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget
[E7] [Am]
But [F] in my [C] dreams [E7] began to [Am] creep
that [F] old [C] familiar [E] tweet, tweet, tweet
I [E7] opened my mouth to scream and shout
I [Am] waved my arms and flapped about
but I [E7] couldn't scream and I couldn't shout
[Am] Couldn't scream and I couldn't shout
I [E7] opened my mouth to scream and shout
[Am] Waved my arms and flapped about
but I [E7] couldn't scream, I couldn't shout
The [Am] song was coming from my [F] mouth [C]
from my [E7] mouth [Am]
from my [F] mouth [C]
from my [E7] mouth [Am]
from my [F] mouth [C]
from my [E7] mouth [Am]
from my [F] mouth [C]
from my [E7] mouth [Am]
[Am] from my [F] mouth [C]
from my [E7] mouth [Am]
from my [F] mouth [C]
from my [E7] mouth [Am]
[F] [C] [E7] [Am]
[F] [C] [E7] [Am]
[F] [C] [E7] [Am] [F]
