lyrics

Bird on my shoulder

Is an old jackdaw

There’s a shadow unfolding

Underneath the lion’s paw

Lion’s mane is fire

Honey in his jaws
Eyes the age of stars

Tumbling underneath his paw

Crown a wheel of lanterns

Crescents in his claw

Towers falling down

Underneath his paw

Bird on my shoulder
Is an old blue jay

Lion sleeps tonight

Is what he says
Lock your doors and windows
Tell your children hide

Lion comes this way

Make his passage wide

Lion’s mane is fire

Honey in his jaw

Eyes the age of stars

Tumbling underneath his paw
Crown a wheel of lanterns

Crescents in his claw

Towers falling down

Underneath his paw
