Beau Black
Bird of a Thousand Voices
[Chorus]
I'm the bird of a thousand voices
Yes, indeed!
Bird of a thousand voices
Yes, it's me!
It's all in fun, it's just a game
Tamaa the drongo - that's my name!
Bird of a thousand voices, yes, it's me!
[Verse 1]
When I was just a baby bird
I learned I had a skill
To imitate both night and day
You know, it was a thrill!
But when it came to hunt and peck
I wasn't all that great
I had to find a different way to earn the food I ate
That's why
[Chorus]
I'm the bird of a thousand voices
Yes, indeed!
Bird of a thousand voices
Yes, it's me!
It's all in fun, it's just a game
Tamaa the drongo - that's my name!
Bird of a thousand voices, yes, it's me!
[Verse 2]
So imitating bad guys
Is my way to earn a meal
Nobody's ever harmed
All that hurts is how they feel
Now listen very closely
You won't believe your ears
'Cause doing other voices
Is a skill I've had for years!
[Bridge]
"Better look out! Janja's here!"
"I'm Makuu! Cower in fear!"
"Goigoi here! I'll give you what's for!"
And let me tell you, kids, I got plenty more!
'Cause...
[Chorus]
I'm the bird of a thousand voices
Yes, indeed!
Bird of a thousand voices
Yes, it's me!
It's all in fun, it's just a game
Tamaa the drongo - that's my name!
Bird of a thousand voices, yes, it's me!
Bird of a thousand voices
Bird of a thousand voices
Bird of a thousand voices
Yes, it's me!
Bird of a thousand voices
Yes, it's me!
