He should’ve listened to Leonard Cohen. LEONARD COHENBird on The Wire LyricsLike a bird on the wireLike a drunk in a midnight choirI have tried in my way to be freeLike a worm on a hookLike a knight from some old-fashioned bookI have saved all my ribbons for theeIf I, if I have been unkindI hope that you can just let it go byIf I, if I have been untrueI hope you know it was never to youFor like a baby, stillbornLike a beast with his hornI have torn everyone who reached out for meBut I swear by this songAnd by all that I have done wrongI will make it all up to theeI saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutchHe said to me, “you must not ask for so much”And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened doorShe cried to me, “hey, why not ask for more?”Oh, like a bird on the wireLike a drunk in a midnight choirI have tried in my way to be free SONGWRITERS LEONARD COHEN
