Stevie Heighway

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Where did you hide your wings Stevie?
Stitched to your heels
Packed into your boots
Beneath the red of your shirt
Or did the Liver Bird tuck them under hers?

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Where did you find your wings Stevie?
From Father Christmas
Beneath your pillow
Down the Walton Breck Road
Or did the Liver Bird offer you hers?

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 What did you do with your wings Stevie?
Skin the blues
Skin the mancs
Skin the gladbach
And the Liver Bird she said they were hers.
