seagull (live in london) - flight of the conchords lyrics

Loading...

tired of this place

i need to get away

it’s time for me to go now

i can’t stay, no, no, no, no

just like any bird
i need to spread my wings

and fly across the ocean

see what the new day brings

’cause i’m a seagull, yeah

in the first verse of this song

the singer, um, portrays
himself as a free spirit

he does this by using the metaphor

of a seagull
a creature untethered…

to gravity

no, i can’t stay on
this cold, little rock

no, it’s time for me to go

my mind’s made up

it’s the mind of a seagull
yeah, yeah

’cause i’m a seagull
i got the mind of a seagull

yeah

in this fascinating second verse

he talks about leaving a rock

the rock, obviously
represents a relationship

which has grown cold
and uninhabitable

wanna fly up in the sky

there’s something more i seek

i wanna feel the warmth of the
morning sun across my beak

’cause i’m a seagull, yeah, yeah

i got a beak, yeah, yeah

this verse, he talks about

leaving the rock again

well, the relationship, obviously

feeling the sun on his beak

the beak is, obviously, a
phallic symbol. it’s his p-n-s

i’m a seagull

a seagull i will always be

dive into the ocean

dip my beak into the sea

oh, here we go now

i’m a seagull, yeah, yeah

i’m trying to lift this piano

i’m trying to lift it
with my hopeless wings

d-mn these feathered things
ah, no, no, no

feathered curse of being
a seagull, yeah, yeah

i have absolutely no idea
what he’s talking about now

one day i found this piano

it washed up on this
cold, little rock

since that day, i’ve been
playing my piano nonstop

’cause i’m a piano playing seagull

yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

i’m totally confused

uh, he seems to be mixing
metaphors here with the piano

what’s–what’s the piano
a metaphor for?

is that–is that a lost dream?

or what’s the–?

sorry, what’s the– excuse me

we’re just doing an
-n-lysis of the song

-what’s the piano a metaphor for?
-no, the piano is a piano

yeah, it’s literally a piano
yeah, yeah, yeah

it’s just a piano?

yeah, that’s right, it’s a piano

-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
i-s the rock a relationship

that has grown cold over time?

the rock is just a rock

so, the beak isn’t
phallic symbolism?

no, no

the beak is not my c-ck, no, no

so this is just a song about

a very musical seagull?

i’m literally a keyboard
playin’ seabird

that sings

i keep on playin’

seabird playin’ my piano

with my wings, oh

literally, a seagull, yeah

who sometimes sh-ts on people, yeah

literally a seagull, yeah

piano solo! yeah!

oh, i wish i had some fingers

oh, d-mn these feathered things

literally, a seagull, yeah, yeah

everybody!

literally, a seagull, yeah, yeah

literally, a keyboard
playin’ seabird

that sings
