Woodpecker's Song

All the birds of a feather got together saying, "
Something is terribly wrong.
You see there used to be a melody,
but now it's nothing but a woodpecker's song.
The beads were in the trees and the birds were back in town.
All through the canopy you could only hear one sound.
All the birds of a feather got together saying, "
Something is terribly wrong.
You see there used to be a melody,
but now it's nothing but a woodpecker's song.
All the chicks dig it, and it ain't no chicken feed.
But what good it is banging your head against a tree?
It don't mean a thing to me.
The bluebirds and finches were lined up on benches.
The cardinal was saying his prayers.
But in spite of his devotion there was a
general commotion, and the turkeys said, "
Who really cares?"
All the birds of a feather got together saying, "
Something is terribly wrong.
You see there used to be a melody,
but now it's nothing but a woodpecker's song.
All the chicks dig it, and it ain't no chicken feed.
But what good it is banging your head against a tree?
It don't mean a thing to me.
The crows took up the caws of casting the
blame, and the doves said it must be a coo.
The parrots seemed to feel the same, and the owl just simply asked, "
Who?"
All the birds of a feather got together saying, "
Something is terribly wrong.
You see there used to be a melody,
but now it's nothing but a woodpecker's song.
