King Of Birds by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
A thumbnail sketch, a jeweler's stone
A mean idea to call my own
Old man don't lay so still you're not yet young
There's time to teach, point to point,
Point observation, children carry reservations
Standing on the shoulders of giants
Leaves me cold, leaves me cold
A mean idea to call my own
A hundred million birds fly
Singer sing me a given
Singer sing me a song
Standing on the shoulders of giants
Everybody's looking on
(Old man don't lay so still you're not yet young,
there's time to teach, point to point,
point observation, children carry reservations)
Standing on the shoulders of giants
Leaves me cold
A mean idea to call my own
A hundred million birds fly away, away, away
I am king of all I see
My kingdom for a voice
Old man don't lay so still, you're not yet young
There's time to teach, point to point
Point observation, children carry reservations
Standing on the shoulders of giants
Leaves me cold, leaves me cold
A mean idea to call my own
A hundred million birds fly away, away, away
Everybody hit the ground
Everybody hit the ground
Everybody hit the ground
Everybody hit the ground

King Of Birds* (original R.E.M.)
A thumbnail sketch, a jeweler's stone
A mean idea to call my own
Old man don't lay so still you're not yet young
There's time to teach, point to point,
Point observation, children carry reservations
Standing on the shoulders of giants
Leaves me cold, leaves me cold
A mean idea to call my own
A hundred million birds fly
Singer sing me a given
Singer sing me a song
Standing on the shoulders of giants
Everybody's looking on
(Old man don't lay so still you're not yet young,
there's time to teach, point to point,
point observation, children carry reservations)
Standing on the shoulders of giants
Leaves me cold
A mean idea to call my own
A hundred million birds fly away, away, away
I am king of all I see
My kingdom for a voice
Old man don't lay so still, you're not yet young
There's time to teach, point to point
Point observation, children carry reservations
Standing on the shoulders of giants
Leaves me cold, leaves me cold
A mean idea to call my own
A hundred million birds fly away, away, away
Everybody hit the ground
Everybody hit the ground
Everybody hit the ground
Everybody hit the ground
King Of Birds (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Un boceto, una piedra de joyero
Una idea mezquina para llamar mía
Viejo, no te quedes tan quieto, aún no eres joven
Hay tiempo para enseñar, punto por punto,
Observación de puntos, los niños tienen reservas
De pie sobre los hombros de gigantes
Me deja frío, me deja frío
Una idea mezquina para llamar mía
Cien millones de pájaros vuelan
Cantante, cántame un dado
Cantante, cántame una canción
De pie sobre los hombros de gigantes
Todo el mundo está mirando
(Viejo, no te quedes tan quieto, aún no eres joven,
hay tiempo para enseñar, punto por punto,
observación de puntos, los niños tienen reservas)
De pie sobre los hombros de gigantes
Me deja frío
Una idea mezquina para llamar mía
Cien millones de pájaros vuelan lejos, lejos, lejos
Soy rey de todo lo que veo
Mi reino por una voz
Viejo, no te quedes tan quieto, aún no eres joven
Hay tiempo para enseñar, punto por punto
Observación de puntos, los niños tienen reservas
De pie sobre los hombros de gigantes
Me deja frío, me deja frío
Una idea mezquina para llamar mía
Cien millones de pájaros vuelan lejos, lejos, lejos
Todos al suelo
Todos al suelo
Todos al suelo
Todos al suelo
