written by Warren Zevon 1993 Zevon Music BMI I've got a bird that whistles I've got a bird that sings I've got a bird that . . . I've got a bird . . . I'm worried about that bird And I worry about everything And I worry when I see my subjects Bow down to the Worrier King Well. I'm hiding from the mailman And I hate to hear the telephone ring I'm hiding from the mailman And I hate to hear the telephone Worried about the women And I worry about everything And I worry when I see my subjects Bow down to the Worrier King I've been up all night Wondering what November's gonna bring Worried about my country And I worry about everything And I worry when I see my subjects Bow down to the Worrier King Worried about my bird And I worry about everything And I worry when I see my subjects Bow down to the Worrier King
