I was walking through the woods and heard the strangest thing
A bird with a tape recorder on her beak
But when I got closer I came to find
It was no tape recorder, it was in real time
Sounded like a chainsaw
Imitating things she saw and heard
Bird just like a chainsaw
Warning all the animals, not just birds
She came from a land so far away
It was no particular place and time to migrate
She found herself in a homeland without a home
And no place to build a nest and care for her own
