I Bought Myself a Liarbird

[00:05.30] I bought myself a liarbird
[00:09.96] He came with free drinks just to blur
[00:12.80] The lies falling out like rain
[00:14.89] On an average English summer's afternoon
[00:22.06] I bought myself a new notebook
[00:26.68] Sharpened my guitar and went to look
[00:29.27] If this biz was just as bongo as the liarbird made out
[00:38.82] All he would say
[00:40.52] Is "I can make you famous"
[00:41.87] All he would say
[00:43.66] All he would say
[00:44.94] "Just like a household name" is
[00:46.16] All he would say
[00:49.11] Methinks world is for you
[00:51.46] Made of what you believe
[00:53.98] If it's false or if it's true
[00:56.56] You can read it in your bible
[00:59.25] Or on the back of this record sleeve
[01:12.73] I bought myself a liarbird
[01:17.24] Things got more and more absurd
[01:19.80] It changed to a cuckoo
[01:21.68] And expanded filling up with all I gave
[01:29.34] I bought myself a big mistake
[01:33.99] He grew too greedy, bough will break
[01:36.43] And then we will find that liarbirds
[01:38.88] Are really flightless on their own
[01:46.01] All he would say
[01:47.46] Is '"I can make you famous"
[01:48.65] All he would say
[01:50.86] All he would say
[01:52.42] "Just like a household name" is
[01:53.65] All he would say
[01:55.83] Methinks world is for you
[01:58.62] There's no handing it back
[02:01.04] If it's false or it's true
[02:03.50] You can read it in your prayer book
[02:06.80] Or on the side of a cornflake pack
[02:19.81] I gave away a liarbird
[02:24.52] A couple less drinks and now I've heard
[02:27.13] The truth shining out like sun
[02:29.59] On an average English winter's afternoon
[02:36.69]
