Birding
[Intro]
Bird song
Bird song
Bird song
Bird song

[Hook]
You know I'm birding baby (birdsong)
Where my binoculars at? (birdsong)
I'm with the trees (birdsong)
I'm looking for birds, yo! (birdsong)

[Verse 1]
I've been to Hell and back and then Hell again
Brown pelican, streets is where I dwell again
All you rappers on the mic sound dull
Me? I'm fly, swallow-tailed gull!
I drop facts, call me Snapple
I'm in the sky, I'm a boat-tailed grackle
I'm on a block like I'm coke or heroin
Fit very colorful, tricolored heron
I'm with your girl tucked under the duvet
She very beautiful, she like a blue jay
She don't like you, she says you was a peasant
She said I'm classy like a ring-necked pheasant
I like to talk to her and pipe her
She like a white-rumped sandpiper
Ey yo I asked her if she need a manager
Go out and look for her, flame-colored tanager
[Hook]
You know I'm birding baby (birdsong)
Where my binoculars at? (birdsong)
I'm with the trees (birdsong)
I'm looking for birds, yo! (birdsong)
You know I'm birding baby (birdsong)
Where my binoculars at? (birdsong)
I'm with the trees (birdsong)
I'm looking for birds, quack-quack!

[Verse 2]
Blue-winged teal, green-winged teal
Up in our fields and we bumping Seal
She looks like she blush when we feeling the rush
I'm a curve-billed thrasher, she a grey-cheeked thrush
We move around the sky like we cargo
Yo we move around the sky like a plain-capped starthroat
She very hippy-dippy, she a Deadhead
Shouts out Redinho, yo, he a redhead
Plus he sampled a bird on the tune
To me yeah he sounds like, yo, a red-throated loon
Yellow-billed loon, pacific loon, maybe it's a common or arctic loon
I'm eating muffins with a nightingale
Atlantic puffin, Montezuma quail
Virginia rail, California black rail
If you tried to rhyme bird names you would fail!
Black-footed albatross, Cassin's auklet
American bittern, Brewer's blackbird
Mountain bluebird, brown booby
Indigo bunting, bushtit
Canvasback, Northern cardinal, gray catbird
Chickadee, chickadee
American coot
Cormorant, cowbird, American crow
Common ground dove, Eurasian collared dove
Dowitcher
[Outro]
That's a bird!
Yo, that's a bird!
This the bird song, yo, that's a bird!
That's a bird!
That's a bird!
This the bird song, yo, that's a bird!
That's a bird!
Yo, that's a bird!
This the bird song, yo, that's a bird!
That's a bird!
That's a bird!
This the bird song, yo, that's a bird!
