Big Bird in a Small Cage

There was a house half way round the world

And I was invited in for a small taste of gin

There was a hall with a thousand birds long

But the biggest one of them all was in a cage too smallI asked the caretaker 'cause he was the Maker

He looked at me and laughed, took another sip from his glass and said

Open up your ears and hearts

You put a big bird in a small cage and he'll sing you a song

That we all love to sing along

To the sound of the bird that mournsWell we rolled into town into sweet New Orleans

To the Apple Bell bar there was a hole in the wall

The ceilings weren't tall, the floors weren't grand

But the sound they made just warmed your heartWell it was a quarter to twelve when the boys walked in

They got their black suits on and the songs would begin

You open up your ears and hearts

You put a big bird in a small cage and he'll sing you a song

That we all love to sing along

To the sound of the bird that mourns (x4)

You put a big bird in a small cage and he'll sing you a song (x5)

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
