Yellow bird up high in banana tree. Yellow bird you sit all alone like me. Did you lady friend leave the nest again? That is very sad makes me feel so bad. You can fly away in the sky away. Your more lucky than me. I also had a pretty girl she's not with me today. hey're all the same those pretty girls. Take tenderness then they fly away. Yellow Bird yellow bird.      Did you lady friend leave the nest again? That is very sad makes me feel so bad. You can fly away in the sky away. Your more lucky than me. Wish that I were a yellow bird I'd fly away with you. But I am not a yellow bird So here I sit. Nothing I can do. Yellow bird yellow bird.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un oiseau jaune qui, perché dans un bananier, se retrouve seul, tout comme le chanteur. Il ressent la tristesse de l'absence de sa compagne, se demandant si elle est partie à nouveau, une situation qui lui pèse. L'oiseau, libre de s'envoler, incarne une chance que le chanteur envie, car lui, il ne peut que rester là, confiné dans sa solitude. Il exprime aussi le désir d'échapper à sa situation, en rêvant d'être cet oiseau, mais il sait qu'il n'a pas cette liberté. C'est une belle métaphore de la solitude et de la mélancolie face aux relations amoureuses éphémères.
