First Song - Andrew Bird (Andrew Wegman Bird)[00:00:00]
Then it was dusk in Illinois a small boy[00:00:38]
After an afternoon of carting dung hung[00:00:44]
On a rail fence a sapped thing[00:00:53]
So weary to crying[00:00:59]
Dark was growing tall[00:01:05]
He began to hear the pond frogs all calling on his ear[00:01:09]
They were calling on his ear[00:01:17]
They were calling on his ear with what seemed their joy[00:01:21]
Soon the sound was pleasant for a boy[00:01:34]
Listening in the smoky dusk and nightfall of Illinois[00:01:38]
And from the fields two small boys came[00:01:47]
Bearing cornstalk violins[00:01:53]
So they rubbed the cornstalk bows with resins[00:01:59]
And the three just sat there scraping of the joy[00:02:03]
Of their joy theyre scraping of the joy[00:02:11]
It was now fine music the frogs and the boys did[00:02:46]
In the towering Illinois twilight[00:02:50]
Make and into dark in spite a shoulders ache[00:02:51]
A boys hunched body loved out of a stalk[00:02:58]
The first song of his happiness and the song woke his heart[00:03:02]
Into the darkness and sadness of joy[00:03:06]
Dark was growing tall[00:03:13]
He began to hear the pond frogs all calling on his ear[00:03:17]
They were calling on his ear[00:03:24]
They were calling on his ear with what seemed their joy[00:03:28]
