lyrics

Narrator:
honey's got her suitcase
she's goin' to the city
saw it on a webpage
stuck inside her mind for days and days
pickin' up some more shifts
workin' hard, dreamin' carefully
checkin' tickets for the train ride
you know you want it bad when you take the time to do it right

Honey:
hey, momma, i'm sorry i couldn't stay
but i'll be back someday
try not to worry while i'm away

Honey, Sucker, and Narrator:
cause we're all birds that can't be caged

Sucker's got a bouquet
flowers that he picked out, one by one
drivin' in the fast lane
a lion for a heart that's never been tamed
Sucker's at the front door
momma breaks the news that cracks the whip
the lionheart is breaking
the reckless passion leakin' from his hate

Honey:
hey, Sucker, i'm sorry i couldn't stay
but i'll be back someday

Sucker:
i may never roar the same way
now that i've been tamed

Sucker and Narrator:
she broke our heart, she forgot our name
she said that she had felt the same
and without a word she went away

Honey, Sucker, and Narrator:
cause we're all birds that can't be caged

Narrator:
well i feel caged
cause i can't trust
this sweet girl
could spill my guts
and skip away
singing "Oh, sunny day!"
i'm not here
i'm apart
from the lion
in my heart
the passion's gone
i'm not in love with anyone
