[00:00.926]I'm your only friend
[00:02.254]I'm not your only friend
[00:04.061]But I'm a little glowing friend
[00:06.557]But really I'm not actually your friend
[00:09.445]But I am
[00:10.619]
[00:15.173]Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
[00:17.645]Who watches over you
[00:20.004]Make a little birdhouse in your soul
[00:22.715]Not to put too fine a point on it
[00:24.742]Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet
[00:27.434]Make a little birdhouse in your soul
[00:30.689]
[00:34.800]I have a secret to tell
[00:37.103]From my electrical well
[00:39.542]It's a simple message and
[00:41.398]I'm leaving out the whistles and bells
[00:44.398]So the room must listen to me
[00:46.742]Filibuster vigilantly
[00:49.085]My name is Blue Canary
[00:51.178]
[00:53.957]My story's infinite
[00:56.316]like the Longines Symphonette]
[00:58.128]It doesn't rest
[00:59.565]

[01:46.642]But I am
[01:47.754]
[01:47.845]There's a picture opposite me
[01:50.141]Of my primitive ancestry
[01:52.631]Which stood on rocky shores
[01:54.375]And kept the beaches shipwreck-free
[01:57.431]Though I respect that a lot
[01:59.879]I'd be fired if that were my job
[02:02.310]After killing Jason off
[02:03.847]And countless screaming Argonauts
[02:06.838]Bluebird of friendliness
[02:09.053]Like guardian angels it's
[02:11.453]Always near
[02:12.603]
