There's a bluebird in my heart thatWants to get out but I'm too tough for himI say, stay in there, I'm not goingTo let anybody see youThere's a bluebird in my heart thatWants to get outBut I pour whiskey on him and inhaleCigarette smokeAnd the whores and the bartendersAnd the grocery clerks never know thatHe's in thereThere's a bluebird in my heart thatWants to get out but I'm too tough for himI say, Stay down, do you want to messMe up? You want to screw up theWorks? You want to blow my book sales inEurope? There's a bluebird in my heart thatWants to get outBut I'm too clever, I only let him outAt night sometimes when everybody's asleepI say, I know that you're thereSo don't be sadThen I put him backBut he's singing a littleIn there, I haven't quite let him dieAnd we sleep together like thatWith our secret pactAnd it's nice enough to make a manWeep, but I don't weep, doYou?
