I love the part where hes like "if ur my girl swirl me around ur room w/ feeling and as we twirl the glow in the dark stars on ur ceiling will shine 4 us as l♥ve sweeps over the room cuz we tend 2 make each other blush....So sweet♥
If you're the bird Whenever we pretend it's summer Then I'm the worm I know the part, it's such a bummer But fair is fair If my segments get separated I'll scream And you'll be there Close your eyes (Close my eyes) Slide the cotton off of your shoulder And feel the shine (Feel the shine) I'm hooked so toss me over And cast a line (Well, I'll try) I'll throw a party and greet my undersea friends (It depends) As they arrive (If they arrive) You and I left our troubles far behind (Troubles far behind) But I still have just one more question on my mind For all my pals who live in the oceans and the seas With friends like these, well, Who needs enemies? If I'm your boy Let's take a shortcut we remember And we'll enjoy Picking apples in late September like We've done for years Then we'll take a long walk Through the cornfield And I'll kiss you Between the ears If you're my girl Swirl me around your room with feeling And as we twirl The glow in the dark stars on your ceiling Will shine for us As love sweeps over the room 'Cause we tend to make Each other blush (you make me blush) You and I left our troubles far behind (Troubles far behind) But I still have just one more question on my mind For all my pals who live in the oceans and the seas With fronds like these, well, Who needs anemones? You're the bird, I'm the worm And it's plain to see That we were meant to be We were meant to be We were meant to be (If you're the bird, If you're the bird, Then I'm the worm) We were meant to be
"You're the bird, I'm the worm and it's plain to see that we were meant to be." This is one of my go-to Owl City songs. It's just so cute and puts me in a good mood! ❤️
i totallly agree. Adam has a very different mind, personality, innocence and so many differences than other artists. none of the fame ever gets to him, he just stays amazing. people disregard him as preachy because he's religious. They say he's crazy because of his aspurgers. they say hes dumb and childish because his songs are "weird". i think the songs are imaginative anf full of metaphors, making interesting analogies that you wouldnt have thought of. i love owl city. =)
This song has a very special place in my heart. I fell in love with a girl, and this was the first song she sent and made me listen to. I still have very fond memories of her. And listening to this song makes me remember all the happy moments spent with her. We are no longer on speaking terms but damn, this song. Nostalgia hits me hard everytime.
How in the heck did Adam write a song with a Finding Nemo reference on an album about the ocean... and not even get a song in the Finding Dory soundtrack?
This video just popped into my head while thinking about Owl City 😍 I absolutely love that you made this thank you. I saw this when I was just a teenager and now I’m 26!
whenever i get sad i listen to owl city (or just happy music or love songs) and it makes me feel so much better(: especially with all the guy stuff going on in life... these cutie love songs just make you smile... and you think about the guy you like when you listen to these songs!
I got told I was listening to children's music :P I prefer to just call it... A beautiful journey, a wonderful experience, and nostalgia infinitatum. I love Owl City, and I don't care what others say.
I think it goes without saying that we all here have one thing in common: we all want the world to be a happy, safe, and wonderful place to live in full of love and joy all around and great music to express it. Thats why this is unarguably no doubt the BEST written music in the entire world because it can make you smile when you are feeling blue. There is no other music that can top this, Adam Young you are a genius. God bless his heart :')
I discovered Owl City back in middle school, and since I was home schooled, I spent most of my days watching your (and other) videos to his songs. This was one of my favourites. I'm going to be a senior this year, and I still listen to Owl City all the time. Thanks for your cute videos!
Came back here to watch one of the first youtube videos I've ever watched. 10 years ago, I was just 12 and this was so entertaining to me back then. Glad to see this again.
Singing the Owl City - The Bird and The Worm with my friends Lyric : If you're the bird Whenever we pretend it's summer Then I'm the worm I know the part, it's such a bummer But fair is fair If my segments get separated I'll scream And you'll be there Close your eyes (Close my eyes) Slide the cotton off of your shoulder And feel the shine (Feel the shine) I'm hooked so toss me over And cast a line (Well, I'll try) I'll throw a party and greet my undersea friends (It depends) As they arrive (If they arrive) You and I left our troubles far behind (Troubles far behind) But I still have just one more question on my mind For all my pals who live in the oceans and the seas With friends like these, well, Who needs enemies? If I'm your boy Let's take a shortcut we remember And we'll enjoy Picking apples in late September like We've done for years Then we'll take a long walk Through the cornfield And I'll kiss you Between the ears If you're my girl Swirl me around your room with feeling And as we twirl The glow in the dark stars on your ceiling Will shine for us As love sweeps over the room 'Cause we tend to make Each other blush (you make me blush) You and I left our troubles far behind (Troubles far behind) But I still have just one more question on my mind For all my pals who live in the oceans and the seas With fronds like these, well, Who needs an enemies? You're the bird, I'm the worm And it's plain to see That we were meant to be We were meant to be We were meant to be (If you're the bird, If you're the bird, Then I'm the worm) We were meant to be
its clever wording. walking through a cornfield filled with ears of corn and it also applies to mouth. sometimes they may be cheesy lyrics but this guy has his love songs down
If you're the bird, Whenever we pretend it's summer, Then I'm the worm, I know the part, it's such a bummer, But fair is fair, If my segments get separated, I'll scream And you'll be there.

Da dat dah da da da da da da dat dah If I'm your boy, Let's take a short cut we remember, And we'll enjoy, Pickin' apples in late September Like we've done for years, Then we'll take a long walk through the corn field, And I'll kiss you, between the ears, If you're my girl, Swirl me around your room with feeling, And as we twirl, the glow in the dark stars on your ceiling, Will shine for us, As love sweeps over the room, Cause we tend to make each other blush (you make me blush) You and I left our troubles far behind (troubles far behind), But I still have just one more question on my mind, For all my pals who live in all the oceans and the seas, With fronds like these well, who needs anemones?

Agreed completely - it annoys me so much how people say that they miss the "old Adam" - there is no old Adam! Just Owl City! >U< And I happen to think his new songs are great too. ^^
Owl City has been with me for a long time, I became a fan around 2009, and i've loved em ever since. Even when I was all edgy and mcr n stuff, i still loved laying back and listening to owl city. this song makes me nostalgic in the good way, and i remember when i was first captivated with his voice. somethings, never change.
This is the first time i heard this song... and now i know. I really fell in love with owl city. ♥ hard to find a song so poetic nowadays. :) but owl city's everything I could wish for. The Bird and The Worm's now MY FAVOURITE. ^.^
im 24 and this song always reminds me of my first girlfriend I had in 8th grade, Riley. We would walk around in late fall picking pumpkins and apples together and she did have the stars on her celling. We would lay together and talk and stare at them for hours and time just slipped away. Being in love for the first time is such a happy memory.
