A bird in a cage
Can't use its wings
One day she might
Refuse to sing
You'll find some feathers
On the floor
And an open door
Ooh Ooh whatcha gonna do
When your little bird flies away
Hey Hey
Ooh Ooh whatcha gonna say
Whatcha gonna do
When your little bird flies away
A bird in a cage
Is on display
People they poke
And stare all day
If she can get those bars
To bend
She won't be back again
Ooh Ooh whatcha gonna do
When your little bird flies away
Hey Hey
Ooh Ooh whatcha gonna say
Whatcha gonna do
When your little bird flies away
Free to touch the sky
She never dreamed
She'd ever
Fly so high

Free to touch the sky
She never dreamed
She'd ever
Fly so high
Ooh Ooh whatcha gonna do
When your little bird flies away
Hey Hey
Ooh Ooh whatcha gonna say
Whatcha gonna do
When your little bird flies away
Ooh Ooh whatcha gonna do
When your little bird flies away
Hey Hey
Ooh Ooh whatcha gonna say
Whatcha gonna do
When your little bird flies away
