[BIFF]
For all of you who come from eggs
With feathered tails and spindly legs
To those who chirp or honk or quack
We say: "It's time to pay you back. "
Hey, you, who grew up in a nest
You've earned the right to take a rest
You've sung for us for oh so long
So sit back now and hear our song
And we say:
Tweet, tweet, peep, peep
Gobble, gobble, coo
Chirp, chirp, cheep, cheep
Cock-a-doodle-doo
Come on and listen to the music
Listen to the words
This song, this song, this song
Is for the birds!
(La la la la, la la la)
It's for the birds!
(La la la la, la la la)
Now listen:
If you're a robin, hawk or owl
Pigeon, crow or waterfowl
Sparrow, duck or cockatoo
Hey, listen up! This song's for you
Sing it!
Tweet, tweet, peep, peep
Gobble, gobble, coo
Chirp, chirp, cheep, cheep
Cock-a-doodle-doo
You gotta listen to the music
Listen to the words
This song, this song, this song
Is for the birds!
(La la la la, la la la)
It's for the birds!
(La la la la, la la la)
Bawk, honk, caw, quack, whistle, whistle, hoot
We wrote this song, and it's a beaut
Screech, whippoorwill, honk, tweet-tweet, peep
In birdie language that means, "Thanks a heap."
Tweet, tweet, peep, peep
Gobble, gobble, coo
Chirp, chirp, cheep, cheep
Cock-a-doodle-doo
Come on and listen
To the music
Listen to the words
This song, this song, this song
Is for the birds!
(La la la la, la la la)
It's for the birds!
(La la la la, la la la)
Tweet, tweet, peep, peep
Gobble, gobble, coo
Chirp, chirp, cheep, cheep
Cock-a-doodle-doo
Come on and listen
To the music
Listen to the words
This song, this song, this song
Is for the birds!
(La la la la, la la la)
It's for the birds!
(La la la la, la la la)
Cheep!
