Neutral Milk Hotel - Little Birds 7"

0:00 Little Birds (Unfinished Version One) 6:02 Little Birds (Unfinished Version Two) "Little Birds" is the first and only song to be released by Neutral Milk Hotel since In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. It is most likely (but hopefully not) the last song Neutral Milk Hotel song, and an epilogue to Jeff Mangum's musical mythos. The Unfinished Version One is a studio recording from January 1999, and the Unfinished Version Two is a live recording of the song from immediately after Jeff had written it in December 1998. The song was inspired by the brutal torture and murder of gay student Matthew Shepard, who was pistol whipped until his brain stem had been crushed and trussed onto a barbed wire fence to freeze to death in October 1998. The song in Jeff's own words: "It's the beginning of a story where a boy is in a not-so-nice situation. One day, little birds start to form around him in his room. They start coming into his body and he was very happy about this. But unfortunately he tries to share it with other people and they get very upset because this is something that he finds to be very beautiful but they don't find very beautiful and they want to destroy it." Lyrics: "Little birds born without a mother or a father I can feel their feathers forming in the running water Now there is another in the middle of my mouth A hundred altogether inside of me now Little birds, little birds, come into my body Mother, they're within me every moment I'm awaking Bodies multiplying until they finally overtake me Put your ears up to my mouth and you can hear them singing Put you hands within me and you'll know what I am feeling I just want to swallow up and promise to protect them Daddy, come towards me, I can see his hands are shaking Put his hands against me, he could feel their bodies breaking Push me to the floor and put his hands up for a beating "I don't want to hear it anymore," he kept repeating Do you really want the burning hell to come and get you? Did you see the burning hell it took your baby brother? Did you see how far he fell and how he made us suffer? Another boy in town at night he took him for his lover And deep in sin they held each other So I took a hammer, nearly beat his little brains in Knowing God in heaven no could never could forgive him So I took a hammer nearly beat his little brains in Little boy born without a mother or a father Taken to the river and then pushed into the water And the priests are singing that the hell was getting hotter Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, the only one to save him From the thing he loves the most but we know will betray him Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, the only one to save him From the thing he loves the most but we know will betray him And here beneath the water I can see How the light distorts so strange And this is how I would like to leave my body And start again."
