The Birds in Your Garden
It's six o'clock, the birds are singing
I'm wide awake whilst you're still fast asleep
I went outside into your garden
The sun was bright and the air was cool
And as I stood there listening
Well, the birds in your garden
They all started singing this song
"Take her now, don't be scared, it's alright
Oh, come on, touch her inside
It's a crime against nature, she's been waiting all night
Come on, hold her, and kiss her, and tell her you care
If you wait till tomorrow, she'll no longer be there
Come on and give it to her, you know it's now or never"
Yeah, the birds in your garden
Have all started singing this song
My father never told me about the birds and the bees
And I guess I never realised
That I would ever meet birds as beautiful as these
I came inside, climbed to your bedroom
I kissed your eyes awake
And then I did what I knew was only natural
And then the birds in your garden
They all started singing this song
"Take her now, don't be scared, it's alright
Oh, come on, touch her inside
It's a crime against nature, she's been waiting all night
Come on, hold her, and kiss her, and tell her you care
If you wait till tomorrow, she'll no longer be there
Come on and give it to her, you know it's now or never."
Yeah, the birds in your garden
Have all started singing this song
Yeah, the birds in your garden
They taught me the words to this song
