[Chorus]
A bird fell to Earth
Reincarnated from her birth
She had fodder in her wings
She had dust inside her brain
She flitted here and there
United States, Switzerland, France, England, everywhere
With fodder in her wings
And dust inside her brain
Oh, how sad
Oh, how sad
Oh, how sad
[Verse]
She watched the people, how they live
They've forgotten how to give
They had fodder in their brain
Thеy had dust inside their wings
She watchеd them, how they tried to live
They've forgotten how to give
They had fodder in their wings
They had dust inside their brains
Oh, how sad
Oh, how sad
Oh, how sad
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
A bird fell to Earth
Reincarnated from her birth
She had fodder in her wings
She had dust inside her brain
She flitted here and there
United States, France, England, everywhere
With fodder in her wings
And dust inside her brain
Oh, how sad
Oh, how sad
Oh, how sad
[Verse]
She watched the people, how they live
They've forgotten how to give
They had fodder in their wings
They had dust inside their brain
She watched them, how they tried to live
They've forgotten how to give
They had fodder in their wings
They had dust inside their brains
[Outro]
Quel pays, quel pays
Quel pays
