#1 of 3 in my "Fair-Weather Friends" trilogy
Story behind the song
In the 3 stages of a suffered betrayal, this delves in discovery and hurt
Lyrics
Birds of a Feather
Words & Music By Tom Tognaci
My fair-weather friends, birds of a feather
Proving me a fool, together
Was there something in the wind? Was it me or just the wine?
I took it squarely on the chin this time
Were those tears cried for my sake? I was right to have my doubt
When you couldnt wait to take it south
My fair-weather friends, birds of a feather
Playing me a fool, together
So, goodbye, my so-called friends
Youve made the bed youre in
And that feathered bed you made
You once again will trade
and trade, and trade, and trade.
No, it didnt take long for our world to rearrange
For your pretty little song to change
Were those tears just made-up things, an excuse used to move on?
Was he waiting in the wings all along?
My fair-weather friends, birds of a feather
Up, up, and away, together
