Description
Spacious and menacing "Birds of a Feather" is a song about conflict, of being surrounded, ambushed and having to fight. Whether it be childhood scraps or protesting in the street most people can relate to the sudden understanding that "something else is happening here". Featuring excellent slide-work and inspired drumming "Birds of a Feather" is a real trip.
Lyrics
Something else is happening here brave words echo in my ear a voice approaching from the rear and my hand it starts to tremble Familiar faces now appear what they want is not clear standing tall but staying near as we watch they assemble Like birds of a feather we fly together and like birds of a feather we fall together I hear talk of turning tail of turncoats and turning pale the wind is whipping up a gale and it just might blow me over Then they charge we do not break instead we give as much as take until at last the night forsakes them to be lost in darkness Like birds of a feather we fly together and like birds of a feather we fall together and like birds of a feather we fly together
