lyrics

Peetie
-------

I am a sad symphony
Sparrow she fell next to me
I picked her up so carefully
And held her to my breast
The dark angel tapped his feet
And paced up and down the street
But I wouldn't let her go
Into his evil nest

I'll make her smile
For just a while

Meaning to life
Meaning to life
Meaning to life
Meaning to life

A newspaper blanket works
For all of us gentle jerks
The whiskey and a paper bag
To help me come to terms
My love shines a faded glow
Poor sparrow she shivers so
I got no bread and I need some dough
To buy a bag of worms

I'll stroke her wings
See if she brings

Meaning to life
