Текст песни Birdland - Chubby Checker
His
father
died
and
left
him
a
little
farm
in
New
England
All
the
long
black
funeral
cars
left
the
scene
And
the
boy
was
just
standin'
there
alone
Lookin'
at
the
shiny
red
tractor
Him
and
his
daddy
used
to
sit
inside
And
circle
the
blue
fields
and
grease
the
night
It
was
as
if
someone
had
spread
butter
On
all
the
fine
points
of
the
stars
'Cause
when
he
looked
up,
they
started
to
slip
Then
he
put
his
head
in
the
crux
of
his
arms
And
he
started
to
drift,
drift
to
the
belly
of
a
ship
Let
the
ship
slide
open
and
he
went
inside
of
it
And
saw
his
daddy
'hind
the
control
boards
Streamin'
beads
of
light
He
saw
his
daddy
'hind
the
control
board
And
he
was
very
different
tonight
'Cause
he
was
not
human,
he
was
not
human
The
little
boy's
face
lit
up
with
such
a
naked
joy
That
the
sun
burned
around
his
lids
And
his
eyes
were
like
two
suns
White
lids,
white
opals,
seein'
everything
Just
a
little
bit
too
clearly
And
he
looked
around
and
There
was
no
black
ship
in
sight
No
black
funeral
cars,
nothin'
Except
for
him,
the
raven
And
fell
on
his
knees
and
Looked
up
and
cried
out
"No,
Daddy,
don't
leave
me
here
alone
Take
me
up,
Daddy,
to
the
belly
of
your
ship
Let
the
ship
slide
open
and
I'll
go
inside
of
it
Where
you
are
not
human,
you
are
not
human"
But
nobody
heard
the
boy's
cry
of
alarm
Nobody
there
'cept
for
the
birds
Around
the
New
England
farm
And
they
gathered
in
all
directions
Like
roses
they
scattered
And
they
were
like
compass
grass
Coming
together
into
the
head
of
a
shaman
bouquet
Slit
in
his
nose
and
all
the
others
went
shootin'
And
he
saw
the
lights
of
traffic
beckonin'
him
Like
the
hands
of
blake
Grabbin'
at
his
cheeks,
takin'
out
his
neck
All
his
limbs,
everything
was
twisted
and
he
said
? I
won't
give
up,
won't
give
up,
don't
let
me
give
up
I
won't
give
up,
come
here,
let
me
go
up
fast
Take
me
up
quick,
take
me
up,
up
to
the
belly
of
a
ship"
And
the
ship
slides
open
and
I
go
inside
of
it
Where
I
am
not
human
I
am
helium
raven
and
this
movie
is
mine
So
he
cried
out
as
he
stretched
the
sky
Pushin'
it
all
out
like
latex
cartoon
Am
I
all
alone
in
this
generation?
We'll
just
be
dreamin'
of
animation
night
and
day
And
won't
let
up,
won't
let
up
and
I
see
them
comin'
in
Oh,
I
couldn't
hear
them
before,
but
I
hear
'em
now
It's
a
radar
scope
in
all
silver
and
all
platinum
lights
Movin'
in
like
black
ships,
they
were
movin'
in,
streams
of
them
And
he
put
up
his
hands
and
he
said,?
It's
me,
it's
me
I'll
give
you
my
eyes,
take
me
up,
oh
Lord,
please
take
me
up
I'm
helium,
raven
waitin'
for
you,
please
take
me
up
Don't
leave
me
here"
The
son,
the
sign,
the
cross
Like
the
shape
of
a
tortured
woman
The
true
shape
of
a
tortured
woman
The
mother
standing
in
the
doorway,
lettin'
her
sons
No
longer
presidents
but
prophets
They're
all
dreamin',
they're
gonna
bear
the
prophet
He's
gonna
run
through
the
fields
dreamin'
in
animation
It's
all
gonna
split
his
skull
It's
gonna
come
out
like
a
black
bouquet
shinin'
Like
a
fist
that's
gonna
shoot
them
up
Like
light,
like
Mohammed
boxer
Take
them
up
up
up
up
up
up
Oh,
let's
go
up,
up,
don't
hold
me
back
Take
me
up,
I'll
go
up,
I'm
goin'
up,
I'm
goin'
up
Take
me
up,
I'm
goin'
up,
I'll
go
up,
tell
Go
up
go
up
go
up
go
up
up
up
up
up
up
up
Up,
up,
to
the
belly
of
a
ship
Let
the
ship
slide
open
and
we'll
go
inside
of
it
Well,
we
are
not
human,
we're
not
human
Well,
there
was
sand,
there
were
tiles
The
sun
had
melted
the
sand
And
it
coagulated
like
a
river
of
glass
When
it
hardened,
he
looked
at
the
surface
He
saw
his
face
and
where
there
were
eyes
Were
just
two
white
opals,
two
white
opals
Where
there
were
eyes,
there
were
just
two
white
opals
He
looked
up
and
the
rays
shot
And
he
saw
raven
comin'
in
And
he
crawled
on
his
back
and
he
went
up
Up
up
up
up
up
up
