Miniature Birds

Westward course of empire's

Got its wheels turning faster

And on to disaster

So long, long

Such a long way to go



Riding up on a high horse

Looking at all the soldiers

And the holy rollers

So long, long

Such a long way to go



It didn't take that long

It didn't take that lo-ong



I could be reasonable

I could fight

I could have at least been a little bit wiser

So long, long

Such a long way to go



You know when those miniature birds

Sing an ignorant song

The choir's putting us on trial

So long, long

Such a long way to go



It didn't take that long

It didn't take that lo-ong



Riding up on high

Riding up on high



It didn't take that long

It didn't take that lo-ong
