The story of the birdman of alkatraz! Hear it now!

lyrics

Hey, lovely girl meet this sweet end
dress in scarves, and kiss your friends
kiss your man and tell him things

Hey, happy camper you are nowhere to be seen
the queen is happy that you realized, you're here
you're alive and you're okay!

sleep the night away, and ring the bells, ring the bells, have..

hey, the way the bird-man sings his song,
hey, when all the tea times seem too long
you are a god of staying calm
stay, nothing more that i can find
today the envelopes just waste our time
seven books on how you're mine

sleep the night away, and ring the bells, ring the bells have..

hey you lovely girl meet this sweet end,
hey dress in scarves and kiss your friends, kiss your man and tell him things.
