Two Magpies

I saw two magpies

A girl and a boy

One for sorrow, two for joy

With no salutes, I move away

And long to face, face, face, face down fear

Ooh

I saw two magpies

There was a girl and a boy

One for sorrow, two for joy

Content to cry, no more to lie

I move away, and lie in truce

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey

Look two magpies

Ooh, a girl and a boy

One for sorrow, two for joy

Three for a girl, and four for a boy

I saw two magpies, two for joy, yeah

Content to cry

No more to lie in truth reviewed

To face down fear, content to cry

No more to lie, no more to lie

And face down fear
