Lyrics of The Bird and the Worm by Owl City
verse
If you′re the bird
Whenever we pretend it's summer
Then I′m the worm
I know the part, it's such a bummer
But fair is fair
If my segments get separated
I'll scream
And you′ll be there
Close your eyes (close my eyes)
Slide the cotton off of your shoulder
And feel the shine (feel the shine)
I′m hooked so toss me over
And cast the line (well, I'll try)
I′ll throw a party and greet my undersea friends (it depends)
As they arrive (if they arrive)
chorus
You and I left our troubles far behind (troubles far behind)
But I still have just one more question on my mind
For all my pals who live in the oceans and the seas
With friends like these, well
Who needs enemies?
verse
If I'm your boy
Let′s take a shortcut we remember
And we'll enjoy
Picking apples in late September like
We′ve done for years
Then we'll take a long walk
Through the cornfield
And I'll kiss you
Between the ears
If you′re my girl
Swirl me around your room with feeling
And as we twirl
The glow in the dark stars on your ceiling
Will shine for us
As love sweeps over the room
′Cause we tend to make
Each other blush (you make me blush)
chorus
You and I left our troubles far behind (troubles far behind)
But I still have just one more question on my mind
For all my pals who live in the oceans and the seas
With fronds like these, well
Who needs anemones?
bridge
You're the bird, I′m the worm
And it's plain to see
That we were meant to be
outro
We were meant to be
We were meant to be
(If you′re the bird)
(If you're the bird)
(Then I′m the worm)
We were meant to be
Writer(s): Adam R. Young, Matthew Arnold Thiessen
