The Walkabouts - Nightbirds lyrics

The nightbirds stumble in Like broken pendulums The nightbirds stumble in Flown from thick to thin 'neath a cloud of suspicion You're a lucky man Say it again The nightrain's pourin' down As the nightsky hits the town The nightbirds stumble in There are orders to be filled There are tall ones to be k**ed There are songs of praises to be sung Will they all go south on us? With the crazies, with our trust? I trust you'll tell me If you lose that trust The nightrain's pourin' down As the nightsky hits the town The nightbirds stumble in You're a lucky man Say it again I'm a lucky man Say it again
