The Song:
In order to make Song Reader feel more authentic, Beck filled out the artwork with fragments of melodies and songs, made-up album collections, and lots of fictional song titles.
"Flying's For The Birds" is listed in a collection of "far-flung melodies" about various exotic locations. While many of the song titles listed throughout Song Reader are references to older sheet music/songs, the "far-flung" titles are mostly just humorous jokes/puns about different cities or traveling or the like.
