    This is my jam 💯%. I was out on a bush block for the last 2 years on my own making and selling art from a tiny cabin. This album was on every single morning like clock work as I painted for dear life. Fat Freddys always in my heart. 😊🦋❤️🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

    Where there was one before,
    now there are many,
    and as the days go by,
    I see them multiply.
    I can't eat, I can't sleep,
    because I know the'll be watching me.
    Descending on the beast,
    these shadows keep folding down,
    for me.
    Mmmmm
    There's a blackbird,
    in my garden,
    oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ohoh ohoh ohohohoho.

    Where there was one before, mmm
    now there are many,
    What are they waiting for,
    food I have not to need.
    I can't eat, I can't sleep,
    because I know the'll be watching me.
    Yellow eyes that see right through,
    I don't know what I'm supposed to do,
    For these blackbirds,
    in my garden,
    oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ohoh ohoh ohohohoho.

    Guard: "Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?"
    Arthur: "Of course not! They could be carried."
    Guard: "By what? A -blackbird- swallow carrying a coconut?"
    Arthur: "It could grip it by the husk."
    Guard: "It's not a question of where it grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios. A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut!"
    Arthur: "Well it doesn't matter! Could you tell your master that Arthur from the court of Camelot is here?"
    Guard: "Look, in order to maintain airspeed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right?"
    Arthur: "Please!"
    Guard: "Am I right?"
    Arthur: "I'm not interested!"
    Guard #2: "It could be carried by an African swallow."
    Guard: "Oh yeah, an African swallow maybe, but not a European swallow, that's what I'm saying."
    Guard #2: "Oh I agree with that."
    Arthur: "Will you _ask_ your master if he wants to join my court at Camelot?"
    Guard: "But then again, African swallows are non-migratory."
    Guard #2: "Oh yeah. So they couldn't bring a coconut back anyway. Wait, supposing two swallows carried it together?"
    Guard: "Nah, they'd have to have it on a line!"
    Guard #2: "Simple! They just use a stranded creeper!"
    Guard: "What, held under the dorsal guiding feathers?"
    Guard #2: "Well why not?"

    what i think this song means : black birds represent darkness, death, vultures, crows, and therefore troubles... all these bad things therefore accumulate,they grow or become worse in the blink of an eye... when he refers to a 'garden" - since gardens represent growth and all life when they grow or are well taken care of - these birds, therefore troubles are there to make sure he doesn't eat from the garden.. him being troubled by the fact that these birds persist can also be a reason why he cannot either sleep nor eat. Beautiful music nonetheless.

      +Xola Steleki Taking his lyric's somewhat political history into account* I would imagine that the blackbirds are the millitary planes used for surveillance. He is simply stating that he knows he is beeing watched.
      * (From Dark Days)
      ...in a world that's so cruel
