Birds In Perspex Lyrics - Singles - Robyn Hitchcock & The Egyptians

Well I take off my clothes with you 

But I'm not naked underneath 

I was born with trousers on 

Just about like everyone 

I'm so lonely I could melt 

And be forgotten instantly 

I love you very patiently 

Honey, please don't finish me 

Birds in Perspex come alive 

Come alive 

Colliapies and Xylophones 

Lay backwards in a broken stream 

No one gives you anything 

Unless, of course, you ask for it 

Birds in Perspex come alive 

Come alive 

Perspex Island she's my girl 

Away above the chimney tops 

And when the sun goes down on her 

So beautiful my heart just stopped 

Birds in Perspex come alive 

Come alive
