LYRICS:
I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naïve
I'm just out to find
The better part of me
I'm more than a bird
I'm more than a plane
I'm a Birdplane
I'm a Birdplane
I'm a Birdplane
Part of me is a bird
The other part is a plane
See my feathers
Hear my engines
My beak and my hydraulic suspensions
Birdplane
I'm a Birdplane
I'm a Birdplane
Check me out I'm a Birdplane
Bird whistle solo
I wish that I could cry
And fall upon my beak
Find a way to lie
And pretend I'm not a freak
It may sound insane
It might be absurd
But I'm a plane
And I'm also a bird
You may be confused
Now don't be naïve
Cause I can eat diesel flavoured birdspeed
Cause I'm a Birdplane
I'm a Birdplane
I'm a Birdplane
A motherfucking Birdplane
And it's not easy to be a Birdplane

Sometimes this song just pops up in my head and I end up laughing hysterically. Never gets old.
Literally just had that happen rn
ima muthafuckin bird plane
that whistle solo was on point!
You don't know. They made the soundtrack and the video separately, which is _very_ obvisous in some scenes. You don't know if they actually used a whistle for the recording.
It was like watching John Popper of Blues Traveler, man. They're both maestros of their chosen instruments. :)
I feel like this song has a much deeper meaning
It doesn't,
lol
+Zaraerae Smith
I swear to you it did. [7]
I think it's about Jordan being trans
Deadly Nightshade Link?
I feel like he lost a bet, so he had to go out into public dressed like, well, a birdplane
actually it's about being trans, also sorry for replying to a 6yr old comment
@@falchions_n_foccacia Funny thing is when I fell in love with this song I still identified as a guy, then I rewatched it after starting HRT and was like "hold up....".
@@ZigealFaust lol, also what a coincidence, I replied to a 6 year old comment, you replied to my 6 month old comment, and I replied to your 6 minute old comment
@@falchions_n_foccacia 666, pick up sticks.
When he said that he's a bird plane, it hits hard.
yes
It’s crazy how u laugh at it but then learn it is actually a really heartbreaking song
The last song they ever wrote. A four chord song. It can join the ranks with Take on Me, Can you feel the love tonight, and Don’t stop believing.
They've released many more songs since. This isn't the last song they wrote.
Along with Poker face, forever young, and if I were a boy.😂
The greatest performance of a slide toucan whistle ever recorded.
And the only one
Has anyone noticed he is partly human too?
yes, me
Oh, good, I felt a bit alone..
Joshualacruz Wow, I didn't notice that first! Thanks!
WTK? You're welcome! It's always nice to be helping someone :)
Im not sure but I think hes part skeleton too
It's manbirdplane! 50% Man 50% bird 50% plane! beware the manbirdplane!!
150%...
i bet you're 50% bad math skills too
It's a south park joke.
Score Kongen
manbearpig eh?
you got it.
This song makes me feel connected to home. Everyday, every second I think of this song. It makes me feel like my true self… a birdplane. I wish I found this song earlier because I truly found who I am after hearing this song. I love life now. It is beautiful. Cheese is beautiful. Just like a birdplane. Thank you for my ted talk.
Lmao this is my favorite comment 💀
Oh hi there birdplane, I’m an apache attack helicopter
I felt the same. I got bullied as a highschool as I fit neither the flocks of birds nor planes .. I'm definitely a birdplane
Glad I'm not the only one
I know these guys are musical comedians but this song is so awesome, yet alone catchy!
ikr :D
+Shivank Sharma they only changed a few words from the original song
4 chords man.
i agree
I randomly started singing this and my boyfriend looked at me like I was crazy.
I showed him this.
Now he too, sings of the birdplane.
Well done, mam. Well done.
Dude the way you worded that makes it sound like an old Viking legend like he now two speaks of the bird plane
@@Unimportant_egg you need to be someone's Viking my friend
this is a song about Coco from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. Has to be.
this song was made to point out that any old rubbish could top the charts using the 4 chords
Revoku This is parody of Superman by Five For Fighting.
***** , this is not a parody. axis of awesome doesn't do parodies.
***** SARCASM ALERT
ihsan ingersoll
Can't tell if sarcastic or not.
Thanks, Dan. ❤
4 Chords :D
These guys made 4 Chords, ye.
Christoffer Eriksson This song is 4 chords too
socialstapler Stating the obvious.
Christoffer Eriksson I thought you didn't realize :P
socialstapler ipyaxhehyc😈😮
This is still awesome in 2015 :D
Agreed
+TheHaos1 Don't forget in 2025
+DarkShadowInTheNight My favourite year that hasn't happened yet.
+TheHaos1 TOO RIGHT
+TheHaos1 2016, B*tches!
Was a few years below Lee at school and I always remember him being hillarious and great at music. Legendary!!
Jack Black? Is that you?
Still find that thing funny I see.. sigh
no this is Patrick
+Cloudy Daze Also, I think that might be Eddie Murphy on guitar.
Hey, he looks a lot like the man. Not just that but his antics and these lyrics are quite similar. Don't be a hater dude. It's not necessarily funny. Just a real comment.
You're not funny. Completely irrelevant.
Gotta say, I once played this at an open night coffee house once, just me singing and playing on the piano. Gotta say, it was a big hit. Big ups to you guys for writing this song.
Listening to this song again, after so many years, and knowing how Jordan has been feeling for so long... It's impossible to think this song didn't have a deeper meaning we never noticed (or did but shrugged off because how could we have known?)
Anyway, I'm so glad Jordan can be happy and able to finally be herself~
Well it's actually a cover, but he added the birdplane stuff
@@YTBooBooKeys A... a cover? A cover of what? I thought for sure this was a Axis original O.o
@@Pablorovirita It's not a cover, it's a parody.
Since no one actually answered the question, I'll point out that it's a parody of "Superman" by Five For Fighting.
i'm so glad that there is a song that understands what its like to be a birdplane.. its not easy..
For the people who actually don't know that there's an original, it's called Superman - Five For Fighting
That was beautiful! Brought tears to my eyes! The intro I found myself singing, "If I could, then I would, I'll go where ever you will go." I don't know where I got that from but it fits perfectly!
This band is famous for their ‘4 chord song’ which is a medley of many pop songs that use the same chord sequence. Wherever you will go is in that medley and so is this song. You probably heard that and remembered both of the songs
I'm pretty sure you were actually singing don't stop believing by Journey and the cast of Glee
I think on Superman. "Is it a bird? is it a plane? NO, it´s Superman!!! (Or in this case, "No, it´s a Birdplane!!! " ) :P
It's a parody of "Superman" by Five for Fighting
phraps
darude-sandstorm*
Finally someone that gets us birdplanes.
Now i finally understand how hard it is to be a birdplane :'(
Why do I feel like a comedy song about a fuckin bird plane gets me?
I don't know but me too thanks
Everytime I need to feel Ok in my non-binary self I listen to this. I am 100% here for the acceptance you three show to the birdplane
the lead singer is trans if you didnt know
@@temsuki2644 yeah I know she's great!! :)
Using a slide whistle in a song. That was great XD
Always felt a connection to the birdplane. Hope he's doing well after all these years.
Average life expectancy of a plane is 20-30 years. A large bird is 30-50 years. Then you gotta figure it's really healthy to be mixing up the gene poole so ... I'd say he's gonna be fine for about another 60 years.
I've been listening to the 4 chords supermedley since 2012 or so, but I had no idea this was a full song until now.
I love you Birdplane!
That birdplane is adorable ^^
"I'm more than a bird
I'm more than a plane
I'm a Birdplane"
First time i heard this i laughed so hard!! Didn't see that coming!
Haven't we all said or thought these things, but never had the balls to produce music of it? Kudos fellas.
After all these years I still find myself randomly singing parts of this song in Spanish.
Still loving this song 10 years later 😊
Thumbs up if you are watching in 2016
skyrimpsycho actually im watching in 3016
Thumbs up if you are birdplane.
This God damned parody has been stuck in my head for 4 days dammit, I hate you all... subscribed
Now I can't unhear this parody when I listen to the real song. Thanks a lot AoA...
To those still in the closet, afraid to tell the world they are a birdplane, lemme tell you we are here to support you. Do not be afraid to show the beauty of your true colors.
#BirdplaneLivesMatter
I uhhh...... I may have done a few birdplane-like things before.....under the influence of alcohol, of course. NEVER would I do such unnatural things sober!
@@DarthTwilight hey it's ok! atleast you now accept that you have committed such acts of bird-planeness
Can't decide if i prefer this or the original by five for fighting.
Nevermind, definitely this
I'm more than a bird! I'M MORE THAN A PLANE!
o shit waddup
I'm more than a bird! Im more than a plane! I'm a DAT BOI!
I'm a motherfuckin birdplane!
Holy shit I didn't even remember this song at all untill I heard that "birdplane" bit in a mashup and the memories came flooding, the lolxdsorandom era was truly something else for it bred shit like this.
You've got to laugh once you realize the sign says:
NO
Birdplanes
Baggy Clothes
Knives
Hats
What an awesome song, I love these guys. Pinnacle parody is purity. They’ve created a ballad that is so irreverent,ironic but hits emotionally. They deserve to sit at the high council with sacha cohen, Louis Theroux, trey parker/Matt stone and friendlyjordies.
A motherfucking birdplane!!!
Took me years to listen to Superman, and after the first chorus and coming straight here
This is sooo much cooler than the song you're parodying. Even the sound is better - I bet Benny was in charge of that
Part bird, part plane and part skeleton
If you ever feel hungry, we will offer jet fuel and bird seed bread
Soy mas que un bird, soy mas que un plane, soy un birdplane!!!! Love u guys!
I am a Birdplane! Finally, a nice community!
this is actually really sad :(
This was probably the most epic RUclips war ever... RUclips debates are stupid, but I give the most highest of fives to the kids that stopped the fight. You sir, have the ChamoCat love. The highet of all honors. I love you
I'm more than a pen. I'm more than an apple. I'm a apple pen.
A motherfucking apple pen
So, I'm at least a dozen years late to the party but... well done, all! Excellent and beautiful!!
I only listened to this song to hear the same 4 chords
Are birdplanes allowed to use the same WCs & drinking fountains as the rest of us? I find it extremely unfair that birdplanes must go to the back of the bus!
I'm a Birdplane, A MOTHERFUCKIN BIRDPLANE!! xD hahaha
The song you didn't know you needed. Until you did.
I have a bird
I have a plane
Ugh..
Birdplane
Why..... why would you do this.
BPBP
Un jodido pajaroplano. Awesome! Deep n funny, it's a hit for sure! :D
i know what it feels like to be a birdplane ( looks into sky like i remember something sad but honorable)
"I can eat diesel flavored bird seed!" haha. And the way he pecks the camera at the end is hilariously adorable. :) :P
The future of fauna. The species that will survive human civilization.
I actually think this is really-really good! ^_^
I've been looking forever...FINALLY A SONG ABOUT BIRDPLANS! :D
Bioshock infinite...
Alexander Stanfield This commentary
Alexander Stanfield Yeah xD
That slide whistle solo was the greatest thing ever
Oh god! Another 4 chords song!
Better love story than Twilight. I cried at the end :')
R.I.P. Rick Rypien
context please.
Thisis Myname This song, or at least some adapted version of it, was used in Vancouver Canucks player Rick Rypien's tribute video. He died some years ago.
TheDragonSmasher What is the title of the original song ?
John Watofuk This video is a parody of "Five for Fighting - Superman (It's Not Easy)", if that's what you are asking.
Thisis Myname Thank you very much !
Something about this song, makes me feel better when I'm feeling down. Weird really.
This has to be one of the shittiest parodies I've ever seen
and I can't stop watching it.
i love birdplane! its awesome! listened to it for the first time on sunday now i cant get it out of my head! x
In hindsight, this song may have got a much deeper meaning
Maybe they noticed that in hindsight, too. 😄
I think the idea here is that some people are very different from each other. And even though how much unique we are, we will be criticized and hated by others. But there will always be people who will accept us.
My guitar teacher told me to watch this so I thought it was okay and my mom was in the room and then comes the cuss word and now I'm sweating so much
It wasn't your fault, you didn't know there was swearing and you didn't make the song.
That bird whistle solo was so shredding dudee
Only just noticed this is a parody of another song xD
That whistle solo!!
Mano, como você traduz isso pra português?
"Sou mais que uma ave
Sou mais que um avião
Eu sou um AVEão"?
Me hizo reír
Pero tal vez puedes usar “pásarro”
The Axis of Awesome - Bird Plane Lyrics
I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just there to find
The better part of me
I'm more than a bird
I'm more than a plane
I'm a birdplane
I'm a birdplane
I'm a birdplane
A part of me is a bird
The other part is a plane
See my feathers
Hear my engines
My beak and my hydraulic suspensions
Birdplane (A birdplane)
I'm a birdplane (A birdplane)
I'm a birdplane (A birdplane)
Check me out I'm a birdplane (Check me out I'm a birdplane)
I wish that I could cry
And fall upon my beak
Find a way to lie
And pretend I'm not a freak
It may sound insane
It might be absurd
But I'm a plane and I'm also a bird
You may be confused
Now don't be naive
Cause I can eat diesel-flavored birdseed
Cause I'm a birdplane (A birdplane)
I'm a birdplane (A birdplane)
I'm a birdplane (A birdplane)
A motherfuckin' birdplane (A motherfuckin' birdplane)
And it's not easy
To be a birdplane
From the director of Birdman
That was freakin ridiculous! Thanks for the laugh. Your AWESOMENESS!!!
Doesn't that sound familiar ???
warner kurt The original song was Superman by Five for Fighting
I know because The Axis Of Awesome used that song among hundred others songs with the famous four chords...
I would love to dress as BirdPlane for Halloween. 😆
Axis of Awesome vs Lonely Island vs Flight of the Chonchords
*surprise challenger* tenacious D has appeared playing the best song in the world...
True tenacious d is really good
Just throwing it out there: Ninja Sex Party.
I heard a song that this was based off of on the radio today, and I about jumped out of my seat, I was so excited. I was so goddamn confused when it didn't actually turn out to be a song about a man who's half bird and half plane.I din't know this was an actual song xD
just sayin.. This song is based off of the song you heard. not the other way around. "It's not easy" by five for fighting.
Yeah, I didn't know that when I heard the original song on the radio. I was so confused.
sad song.
These guys rule so hard! Especially the lead dude - very Jack Black-esque!
Parody idea "reality show killed the moderately talented video star" - parody of video killed the radio star
when there was poop on the car windshield, omg, i'm dying!!
I could be wrong, but if you look closer at the lyrics, it almost sounds like a metaphor for transgenderism.
It is. The singer is transgendered and came out as female about 2 years ago or so.
It's deeper than it looks
This video genuinely makes me happy
liek iv crie evritim :'(
I'm more then a bird. Yet more then a plane? I must be a birdplane. LOGIC.
10 years after this song, ornithopter drones are a thing. Birdplanes.
Best. Solo. Ever.
I"m not sure what this is, but I like it.
