Lyrics
0:04Nightingales - Prefab Sprout
0:27Tell me do something true true of you and me
0:36That we're too busy living through too busy to see
0:52What is it that we do makes us what we are
1:01If we sing are we nightingales shine are we stars
1:18Who are we what we got are we a firework show
1:29Growing pale like a star that burnt out years ago
1:40Stranger things have been stranger things have gone
1:46I find it hard right now to name you one
1:52Tell me do something true and drop the fairytales
2:03If singin' birds must sing with no question of choice
2:08Then livin' is our song indeed our voice
2:14Best agree you and me we're probably nightingales
2:51Who are we what we got are we a firework show
3:01Growing pale like a star that burnt out years ago
3:13Stranger things have been stranger things have gone
3:19I find it hard right now to name you one
3:24Tell me do something true and drop the fairytales
3:36If singin' birds must sing with no question of choice
3:41Then livin' is our song indeed our voice
3:47Best agree you and me we're probably nightingales
4:09God's a proud thundercloud we are cartoon cats
4:18With a fear that is biblical under our hats
4:35Who are we what we got are we a firework show
4:46Growing pale like a star that burnt out years ago
4:58Stranger things have been stranger things have gone
5:03I find it hard right now to name you one
5:08Tell me do something true and drop the fairytales
5:20If singin' birds must sing with no question of choice
5:25Then livin' is our song indeed our voice
5:31Best agree you and me we're probably nightingales
