Two Beauties Sizing Up Each Other

The Peacock

Pretty bird, Oh pretty bird

You walk like a chicken

And crow like a cat!
Pretty bird, Oh how lovely

You'll sit on my roof

And run from the dog!

Pretty Bird, Come eat from mine hand

Don't perch on the porch

Your poop's on the ground!

Pretty Bird, Silly bird

A tail five feet long

And a head with a fan!

Pretty Bird, Strut your stuff

Waddle around and shake like a jerk

Your feathers are grey underneath all the eyes

And your neck is blue and turquoise too!

Your eyes are black like cold dumb coal
Surrounded by black and white like two fish in a pot!

Come listen to my music or perch on my fence

You are a silly bird, I'll tell you again

Pretty Bird, Oh pretty bird

You walk like a chicken

And crow like a cat!
