Map the Channels

from Songs for Birds and Bats by doubleVee

lyrics

Two goons flying through the schoolyards.
With rotating eyes, we stretch fourteen miles.
White lightning chewing through the blue rain
as we unconsciously throw our wings on the ground.

(Please don’t tell anybody)
If you know,
4-3-2-1
we may implode (although the odds are low/odds are at zero.)
You will see us,
frame by frame we burn into the heart of the moon...parlez vous!

We are the birds, we are the bats.
We have the number one ability to make you understand that future man,
will fly again.
We have the empathy and chemistry but only speak to you because we’re

gliding, bang bashing on the rooftops (oooh, oooh, oooh-ooh.)
Yeah, this shiny metal, clad like armadillos.
We’re flapping through echoes in the forecast... (oooh-oooh-oooh-oooh)
playing star patrol,
doing one-eighty, one-eighty, one-eighty...maybe a little bit slower.

If you go,
4-3-2-1
losin’ control (although the odds are low/the odds are at zero.)
As you’re falling (like dominos)
frame by frame we burn because we’re...
we’re coming home
we're coming home.

Oooh....

Won’t take your satellites away,
but like before we’ll keep it safe.
Yeah, we’ve got a plan to map the channels.

Within this lonely biosphere,
where only precious few appear...
latitude, altitude, parlez-vous!

We are the birds, we are the bats.
We have the number one ability to make you understand that future man,
will fly again,
we have the empathy and chemistry but only speak to you.

We are the birds, (we are the birds) we are the bats (we are the bats).
We have the number one ability to make you understand that future man (that future man),
will fly again (will fly again),
we have the empathy and chemistry but only speak the truth and to you.

We are the birds, (we are the birds) we are the bats (we are the bats).
We have the number one ability to make you understand that future man (that future man),
will fly again (will fly again),
we have the empathy and chemistry but only speak the truth and to you.
