Verse (A Cappella):
Well I didn’t tell anyone, but a bird flew by.
Saw what I’d done. He set up a nest outside,
and he sang about what I’d become.

 

He Fsang so loud, Csang so clear.
EI was afraid all the Amneighbours would hear,
So I Finvited him in, just to Creason with him.
I Epromised I wouldn’t Amdo it again.

 

But he sang Flouder and louder inside the house,
And Cno I couldn’t get him out.
So IE trapped him under a cardboard box.
Amstood on it to make him stop.
I Fpicked up the bird and above the din I said
“CThat’s the last song you’ll ever sing”.
FHeld him down, broke his neck,
CTaught him a lesson he wouldn’t forget.

I Eopened my mouth to scream and shout,
I Amwaved my arms and flapped about.
But I Ecouldn’t scream and I couldn’t shout,
Amcouldn’t scream and I couldn’t shout.

 

I Fopened my mouth to scream and shout
Amwaved my arms and flapped about
But I Ecouldn’t scream I couldn’t shout,
