Lyrics: James Little/Martin Adams
Music: James Little/Martin Adams
Who wrote the rule that
said a thing with feathers absolutely has to fly?
(Lie)
(Why must they fly?)
Some creatures have two wings that flap
But you won't find them up there in the sky
(Try, try, try)
(They're not up there in the sky)
Gravity, they don't defy
They'll never soar, won't even try
(Well~)
Have you heard?
(Have you heard?)
About the flightless bird?
(About the flightless bird?)
With wings that flap they've been supplied
But after that, things went awry
Well, have you heard?
(Have you heard?)
About the flightless bird?
(About the flightless bird?)
They're quite content there on the ground
To see them don't look up, look down
(Ostrich, kiwi, penguin, emu)
They all can't fly!
(Let's play a little kazoo!)
