There’s a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall  
And the bells in the steeple too  
And up in the nursery an absurd little bird  
Is popping out to say “cuckoo”

We keep our voices as guarded secrets  
Wait for awhile, and we will surely sing  
With all the wonder of birds

We make a sky where we may be  
We build a home with windows to fly through

Let’s talk dirty to the animals[/del]

[Oh wait, did that one recently…]

He rocks in the tree tops all day long  
Hoppin’ and a-boppin’ and singing his song  
All the little birdies on Jaybird Street  
Love to hear the robin go tweet tweet tweet  
Rockin’ robin, rock rock  
Rockin’ robin’
