    I think it comes from the name "Martin" which is a kind of bird... You know... "House Martin", "Sand Martin" etc...

     

    There's also the phrase "a little birdie told me" but maybe I'm going to far to say that...

    That's what happens when just one member of the band writes almost all the songs! XD

     

    PD: In Charlie Brown, the lyrics say "in my scarecrow dreams", that implies the existence of crows right? Is that a reference too? LOL

    Hymn for the Weekend: bird noises at the beginning, references to wings and being lifted up though this is also mostly a reference to angels.

     

    Up in Flames: "So it's over, this time you're flying on..."
