Jackdaw lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Jackdaw lyrics If I was a born again jackdaw You know I d help you, yes I would An if I was a born again jackdaw You know I d be there if I could. Well those in the know would have you believe That the jackdaw is bad an he steals He s a symbol of darkness, a crow, the devil s own An the poet Laureate don t like em An Alfred Hitchcock didn t like em An it s a pretty safe bet that you don t like em Well let me tell you something, I love em. An if I was a born again jackdaw You know I d help you, yes I would An if I was a born again jackdaw You know I d be there if I could. But those in the know they ll scoff an they ll say If you were a sparrow or a robin you d despise jackdaws They steal your eggs an eat your babies Well I ve thought about this an I ll tell you There might be a few rogue jackdaws But they get their comeuppance, most care If one in the flock gets left behind or set upon Others return to help and secure its safety and well-being An I ll tell you something, I love em. An if I was a born again jackdaw You know I d help you, yes I would An if I was a born again jackdaw You know I d be there if I could. An I ll tell you something else what a jackdaw told me "Your pecking order s all wrong", he said "You re burning your book and soon you ll be no better Than the fish in the sea Listen to me". An if I was a born again jackdaw You know I d help you, yes I would An if I was a born again jackdaw You know I d be there and I would. song lyrics
