In The Land of The Bird Of Paradise

In The Land of The Bird Of Paradise

Everythings green and so full of promise

But everythings fake and that includes the promises.

Everythings great in the land of the bird of paradise.

Daddy dont lie and mommys not high

And the maid dont steal your ring

Little brother aint gay he just likes

the way he looks in tights.

And everythings green in the land of the bird of paradise.

Southern California, such nice hills even the ones of silicone based.

She didn't have surgery, she just has a youthful face

Nananana na all is Shangri-La

All is what it seems if you believe your dream.

Surrounded by the bird of paradise.

Such a lovely yellow orange and periwinkle blue.

They're growin' everywhere

At ocean ranches too

If you lie to me then Ill lie to you too.

Nobodies dirty in these bedroom towns

Don Henies not high and Whitneys still around.

The ground dont shake and nothing gets me down.

In the land of the bird of paradise.

If I had a house on the hill rite there

I think id have you over but the owners aren't there.

I can see the ocean blue as arctic ice.

In the land of the bird of paradise.
