The song "Mismatched" by Circling Birds

lyrics

Everybody's...so special.
Everyone...is so important.
We've all got our stories to tell.
So, why we trumpin on one another?
Mismatched...components
of wrong size...
all wrong-sized...
and so important...
so special.

Everybody wants peace and harmony
but they roll their eyes at a singular glory.
Everybody wants peace and harmony...
but they don't give it...
they won't give in.
Oh, they say, "Peace, peace, peace!"
as they toss you in prison.
"Peace, peace, peace!"
Brother, it don't work that way...
cause everybody is oh, so special.
So important.

Oh, they take, take, take.
Well, taking from others ain't peace, man, its robbery.
They say, "Give, give, give."
meaning your money or your life.
They say, "Love, love, love!"
as they're bending you over
and all they're really saying
is, "Just look at me now."

Cause don't you know, that they're oh, so special.
They're vital, corked and bobbin' ocean bottles.
All of them single screws dropped into mechanical drain.
Each and every one a needle in a haystack
going against the grain.

"I'm so special
when I'm taking from another man!
and I'm at peace with no harmony!
and I'll make you love me
with my Oh...my oh, so special...
Love...
Love...
Love...
and I'll make you love me...
Well, I'll make you love me
with my Oh, so special...
my Oh, so special love.

about

Circling Birds Indianapolis, Indiana

Circling Birds is the result of three guys who have been playing music together since they were teenagers.

The "Circling Birds" sound is a chaotic yet familiar one. Wanting to capture the energy of the riff-driven rock of the 70's, they then sprayed all manner of influences onto the music. Country, Jazz, Modern experimental.

In a nutshell, Circling Birds brings the "Nasty" back to music.
