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 they'll be watching me
Descending on the breeze
Their shadows keep falling down on me

There's a blackbird
In my garden
Oh!

Where there was one before
Now there are many
What all they’re waiting for?
Food I have not eaten
I can't eat
I can't sleep
Because I know they'll be watching me
With yellow eyes that see what I do
I don’t know what I’m supposed to do

All these blackbirds
In my garden
Oh!
