[Verse 1]
Oooooo ooooo ooooo
Oh oh oh., ooooooo oooooo ooohhhh
Cindy sits on her porch with a smoke in her hand.
[Puffing on that smoke]
Birds are singing and dew still glistens on the land.
[Such lovely singing, the birds are singing]
As she watches the traffic go by,
Thoughts of the future make her sigh.
[THOSE THOUGHTS, THEY MAKE HER SIGH]
IIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIII, OH OH OH
oooooo ooooooo oh oh oh
[Chorus]
Why do they have to change everything?
Why can't things just stay the same?
This progress seems so lame.
And all the songs from the birds,
Will be gone, never again to be heard.
[NEVER AGAIN TO BE HEARD]
Ooooooo oooooo oooooo
Oh oh oh
[Verse 2]
Tearing down forests
[Tearing them down]
Destroying their homes.
[Destroying all they have]
Soon the birds will sing no more
[NO MORE, NO MORE, SOON THEY WILL SING NO MORE]
SOON THE BIRDS WILL SING
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
MOOOOORRRREEEEEE!!!
YEAH!!! LA LA LA
LA DA DI DA
LA LA LA
Chorus]
Why do they have to change everything?
Why can't things just stay the same?
This progress seems so lame.
And all the songs from the birds,
Will be gone, never again to be heard.
[NEVER AGAIN TO BE HEARD
Oooooooo oooooo oooo
Ooooooo oooooo oh oh oh
[Verse 3]
Cindy is enjoying the day.
Feeling the breeze in her hair
[Enjoying the breeze]
Listening to the songs nature plays.
[Ooooooo the songs]
She knows it won't be long,
When there is no more song
[NO MORE SONG, OH NO]
SHE KNOWS IT WONT BE
LOOOONNNNGGGGGG!!!
Oooooooo ooooooo
Oh oh oh la la la
La da di da
Chorus]
Why do they have to change everything?
Why can't things just stay the same?
This progress seems so lame.
And all the songs from the birds,
Will be gone, never again to be heard.
[NEVER AGAIN TO BE HEARD]
NEVER AGAIN [NEVER EVER AGAIN]
[Bridge]
Cindy takes a final look at the bird's playground. [A final look]
One final look all around. [One final look]
"I will miss the sounds and songs you share"
She says to the birds......
WITH GREAT DISPAAAAAIIIIIIRRRR!!!!
