The wrens are passerine birds in the mainly New World family Troglodytidae. There are approximately 80 species of true wrens in approximately 20 genera. The genus eponymous of the family is Troglodytes. Only the Eurasian Wren occurs in the Old World, where in Anglophone regions it is commonly known simply as the "wren" as it is the originator of the name. The name wren has been applied to other unrelated birds, particularly the New Zealand wrens (Acanthisittidae) and the Australian wrens (Maluridae).
Most wrens are small and rather inconspicuous, except for their loud and often complex songs. Notable exceptions are the relatively large members of the genus Campylorhynchus, which can be quite bold in their behavior. Wrens have short wings that are barred in most species, and they often hold their tails upright. As far as known, wrens are primarily insectivorous, eating insects, spiders and other small arthropods, but many species also eat vegetable matter and some will take small frogs/lizards.

where am I going to get some sleep
where am I going to get some sleep this time
light a candle, light a cigarette
I bet the world is on fire
I don't know... I know it's much too late
I've been here seven hundred times
and I' m well aware that I'm not likely to regret leaving them behind like this
they came from underneath my bed
they stood around me and said “lay back we're going for a ride”
I said the knot was way too tight
take the chair my spine can't wail all night
pin my eyes I'm going to get some sleep
my faith has been retired
clean my suit I have to look just right
I've got one nail left in me yet
It's sketchy stop screaming
I think I am dying, collapsing, kids barking “you're so jealous”
will the girls still like me nine days from now
they will paint my face and fix my hair like LEE
God how I'm the envy of them all
blame Seattle, blame the fake toupee
It's all about to tremble so change direction
