A   E        A     E      A
All nineteen birds flying fast up

They are dead they are not alive
A   E        A    E       A
Bad bird you flap off you beak
E        A      E          B  F#  A  E  A  E
High and mighty beady bird eye

They're not alive

A    E      A          E       A           E
They eat no love, they curl up in their hollow tree
A            E        B   F#     A  E  A  E
And leak the sap that bad birds do
B  F#  A  E  A  E

A     D       F        G               A
Poison in the drops of black and white pearl

On the 'leaving the cinema' girl

They're not alive
B  F#  A  E  A  E

A               B        C            E
Don't linger on not pure gold in your hand
A             B      C      E
And fly again to the end of England
C#  G#    B  F#  D       F     B    A#  F#
Sad birds flying through the famous London fog
A#   F#   A#  F#
There is no God
      B   F#  A  E  A  E
There is no 'alive'
        B   F#  A  E  A  E
In my menagerie
