[Verse]
She was waiCadd9tin` at the stationG  
he was gettCadd9in` off the trainG  
he didn't have a ticket so he had to bum through the barriers, again.
well the ticket inspector saw him rushin` through he said, girl you don't know how 
much i missed you 
but 
we better run 
cause i havent got the funds to pay 
this
fine 
she said
fine
so they ran out of the station 
and jumped onto a bus with 
two of yesterdays travel cards 
and two bottles of bud
and he said you look well nice.
well she was wearin a skirt 
and he thought she looked nice and
yeah she didn't really care about
anything else because she only
wanted him to think that she looked nice
and he did
but he was lookin' at her yeah
all funny in the eye
she said c`mon boy 
tell me what you're thinkin` now
dont be shy
he said alright i'll try
well the stars up in the sky
and the leaves in the tree
all the broken bits that make you trip up and the grassy bits in between
all the matter in the world
is how much that i like you
she said what?
he said let me try and explain again
[Chorus] (x2)
right birds can fly so high
and they can shit on your head
yeah they can almost fly into your eye
and make you feel so scared
but when you look at them
and you see that they are beautiful
thats how i feel about you
[Bridge]
she said what?
he said you
she said what are you talking about?
he said you
[Chorus] (x2)
right birds can fly so high
and they can shit on your head
yeah they can almost fly into your eye
and make you feel so scared
but when you look at them
and you see that they are beautiful
thats how i feel about you
[Outro]
and thats how i feel about you
she said thanks i like you too
he said cool
