[Verse 1]
Pretty bird with feathers falling
Pretty as a lady calling
For her pink and midnight lover
As she stares into the water
And a yellow moon is rising
And there can't be no disguising
That the pretty bird is dying
With a silver arrow lying at its side
Rivers of blood, oceans of tears
Life without death and death without reason
To the whole United Nations
To your greatest expectations
To the moment that you realize
As a dark figure slips from out of the shadow
[Chorus]
Pretty bird closes its eyes, pretty bird dies
Another pretty thing dead on the end of the shaft
Of the Zen Archer
[Verse 2]
A man in parts forgotten
With an outlook that is rotten
And an attitude to match it
Finds relief inside a hatchet
Pretty bird with feathers falling
Pretty as a lady calling
For her pink and midnight lover
As she stares into the water
And a yellow moon is rising
And there can't be no disguising
That the pretty bird is dying
With a silver arrow lying at its side
Rivers of blood, oceans of tears
Life without death and death without reason
To the whole United Nations
To your greatest expectations
To the moment that you realize
As a dark figure slips from out of the shadow
[Chorus]
Pretty bird closes its eyes, pretty bird dies
Another pretty thing dead on the end of the shaft
Of the Zen Archer
[Verse 2]
A man in parts forgotten
With an outlook that is rotten
And an attitude to match it
Finds relief inside a hatchet
