Early Birdie Lyrics

[Verse 1: Adam Young]
Good evening, shuttle bus!
Tell me where you're gonna take us
Some place that I have never been
It's chic transportation to new destination
Where I leave my reflection on the glass
I'd ask, but we don't know how far these interstates go
Or how deep the city roots go down
In chilly sub-depth railways, the weathered concrete stairways
Provide me with a means of getting home
If I ever leave

[Chorus: Adam Young]
On crystal sand, we sleep hand-in-hand
While soothing words

[Verse 2: Adam Young]
So many sights to see, so wake up like an early birdie
And we'll get a head start on the day
Oh, stained-glass skyways and crowded six lane highways
If I look back when I begin to leave, will they remember me?
Circuit flights bend the lights when I am spent
And tour guides make happy brides feel heaven-sent

[Bridge: Adam Young]
Good evening, shuttle bus!
Tell me where you're gonna take us
[Chorus: Adam Young & Austin Tofte (Both)]
On crystal sand, we sleep hand-in-hand
While soothing words

On crystal sand, we sleep hand-in-hand
While soothing words hover like hummingbirds


[Outro: Adam Young]
Good evening, shuttle bus!
Tell me where you're gonna take us

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
