An owl in the ocean, simply hunting for a thrill

Twenty feet below the surface, trying to grow gills

Knows that this ain't no place for one who cannot swim

But word from the skipper is that they found a new fish

Bird's eye view can't help you now

Bird's eye view won't help you now

Bird's eye view can't help you now

Bird's eye view won't help you now

The owl in the ocean, reminiscing on the sky

Putting on a show for all of those who stayed behind

Searching subtly for other birds under the sea

Relying on the crowd above for basic self esteem

Bird's eye view can't help you now

Bird's eye view won't help you now

Bird's eye view can't help you now

Bird's eye view won't help you now

Bird's eye view can't help you now

Bird's eye view won't help you now

Bird's eye view can't help you now

Bird's eye view won't help you now
