Magpies on Fire

Magpies on fire Makin' love like little wolves Out on the porch can lead to medicine Oh well, I'm game for anything at all Scarecrow's a liar Spins a yarn and no one ever checked it out To see if it was real Sold you the moon and now it's time to fall All along it's like a bird Who's trapped alone inside your cage, love What more do you want? How much more can you take? I love my mistakes i've been here before All in all it's just the call Of something wild beyond your room There's a changing of the major chord Your minor threat will do, love My gun misfired Shot myself instead, I guess I always knew I'd be the one to lose That screen door slams, time to make a move Help me! What more do you want? How much more can you take? I love my mistakes i've been here before All in all it's like a bird Who's trapped alone inside your cage, love A bird who's born to live at half your age Girl a bird who's never really had a say Yeah! What more do you want? How much more can you take? I love my mistakes i've been here before Least of all she's like a bird Who's now been freed from someone's cage --- Magpies on Fire - Red Hot Chili Peppers
