[Verse: John Balance]
Looking upon it with a sense of dread
Facing it with a sense of dread
Gazing upon it with a sense of dread
Looking upon it with a sense of dread
Facing it with a sense of dread
Larks, carrion crows, ortolans
Turkeys, peacocks, guinea-fowl
Robin, redbreast, thrushes, swans
Edible birds uttering horrible cries
Nocturnal birds; boiled owls
Nocturnal birds; boiled owls
Edible birds uttering horrible cries
Could you s-
Could you even swallow a boiled owl?
Could you even swallow a boiled owl?
Could you even swallow a boiled owl?
Could you even swallow a boiled owl?
Looking upon it with a sense of dread
Gazing upon it with a sense of dread
Looking right upon it with a sense of dread
