Magpie
Do you look for all the lovers that you steal
Ah Magpie
Magpie
Do you collect them only just because you can
Oh Magpie.
One for sorrow, two for joy
Come tomorrow Do you feel remorse.
Magpie
Where do you put the silver that you hoard
Oh Magpie
Magpie
Do you crave just one more piece of glittered gold
Magpie
Five for silver, six for gold
Seven secrets never told.
Magpies wheel on the fickle wind
Turning turning taking what they find
Magpie
With your chatter in the trees you lure them in
Oh Magpie
Magpie
And the little birds are lost in all that din
Magpie
One for sorrow
Two for joy
Come tomorrow Do you feel remorse.
Oh Magpie
