Birds Lyrics
I got tomorrow coming, I got, got, I got
I got tomorrow coming
I got tomorrow coming, I got, got, I got
I got tomorrow coming, in, in, in, in, in
I got tomorrow coming, I got, got, I got
I got tomorrow coming
I got tomorrow coming, I got, got, I got
I got tomorrow coming, in, in, in, in, in
Birds, fuck you
[Verse 1]
I've got a bluebird, it might die
It got wetted, I stayed dry
I'm not trying to use my mind
I got that attitude at all times
I've got this attitude at all times
I got a black hat, it might live
It's got a black hat, it goes big
I had a bluebird, now it's did
[Refrain]
One, two, three, four
One bird, two birds, three birds, four (Two)
Five birds, six times, life is war
One bird, two birds, three birds, four (Two)
Fuck you, think I fuck this for?
I got tomorrow coming, I got, got, I got
I got tomorrow coming, in, in, in, in, in
I got tomorrow coming, I got, got, I got
I got tomorrow coming, in, in, in, in, in
I got tomorrow coming, I got, got, I got
I got tomorrow coming
I got tomorrow coming, I got, got, I got
I got tomorrow coming, in, in, in, in, in
Birds, fuck you
[Verse 2]
I got, you not, in my way
I got right now between my legs
I put right now between your legs
I got today shoveling graves
I got tomorrow turning in your grave
I got Jesus, he got saved
I got power, it's so cheap
Fuck this bird, bitch, drink this bleach
[Refrain]
One, two, three, four
One bird, two birds, three birds, four (Two)
Five birds, six times, life is war
One bird, two birds, three birds, four (Two)
Five birds, (Three) six times, life is war
I got higher, I got fake
I got higher, I got fake
I got higher (Higher), I got fake
I got higher (Higher)
I got- birds
Birds
[Chorus]
I got tomorrow coming, I got, got, I got
I got tomorrow coming (Birds)
I got tomorrow coming, I got, got, I got
I got tomorrow coming, in, in, in, in, in
Birds, fuck you
About
“Birds” first appeared on August 21, 2013, and was the first new Death Grips song after they were dropped from their label and decided to just not show up to some of their shows. “Birds” was later included on their third LP, Government Plates, which was spontaneously announced and released for free on November 13, 2013.
A year later, when Government Plates was given its first proper physical release (on vinyl, no less), it was revealed that the guitar on this song was played by actor Robert Pattinson, best known as the main vampire guy from the Twilight film franchise. Pattinson and Death Grips have a bit of history together; there were rumors that the actor had appeared in a film directed by Death Grips drummer Zach Hill, and they were earlier seen in a photo together, along with Beyoncé, because nothing is out of the realm of possibility with Death Grips.
