It's Morning

One parrot in a cage

At the home of a friend

Is reason to wonder and stare

Green wings and red face

And a sapphire belly

A racket so loud

As to out shout the tele

But this morning, my prayer

By the side of the sea

Took odds to turn back

To the moon in the trees

Where a green cloud of birds

In a flock of a thou'

Yelled from one to another

It's morning out loud

"It's morning, it's morning

It's morning", they cried

From the edge of the treetops

To the edge of the skies

"It's morning, it's morning

It's morning", they cried

So open your heart

When you open your eyes

And the sound of their voices

Together did blend

Forming chords of awakening

If I'm not here again

For they shouted

Never again would they fly

In such numbers across

Such a primitive sky

And they noticed my heart

As it sank to the sand

Do not hurry they called

It's all part of a plan
