What Can I Say? Letra

Little children did I tell you how the mockingbird Called the animals together try to say a few words But the squirrels began to chatter and the bees began to buzz Just the way it is, just the way it was What can I say? What can I say? What can I say? What can I say? Now everybody's talking but it makes no sense Used to be a tree, now it's a picket fence With the wild trees gone and no place to go They put 'em in a zoo next to the monkey show You can protest swinging on the garden gate Mockingbird tried to warn you but it is too late What can I say? What can I say? What can I say? Oh what can I say? He ain't gonna fight to say his peace That's just the way it was, just the way it is Talk to yourself on your cordless phone Watch TV you see celebrities You got to sit outside if you want to see stars Used to swing through the trees but now they're monkey bars What can I say? I mean, really, what can I say? Oh what can I say? Oh what can I say? Now everybody's talking but it makes no sense Used to be a tree, now it's a picket fence Oh he ain't gonna fight to say his peace Just the way it was, just the way it is What can I say? What can I say? What can I say? What can I say? What can I say? What can I say? What can I say? What can I say? What can I say?
