You're full of 'flu, limbs are sore
through tissues you do wade
nose is bubbly & you're on the floor
you're getting quite deranged
and though you rant and swear
though you wanna spew

'Flu of a bird, that's what they say
they're not sure how the bug is,
but they know that it does fizz,
(And maybe all you want to know is)
'flu of a bird, it's on it's way today
they're not sure how the bug is.
but they know that it does fizz
all you feel you know is

Your aching limbs bring out your fears
even after all those beers
the flamingos are lookin' so pale
and your face looks just like Orville
and though you rant and swear
though the words are blue

'Flu of a bird, is it an osprey?
you don't know where your nose is
you can't answer this quiz
(and maybe what you need to know is)
'flu from a bird, could it be a jay?
cockatoo? parrot says "is"
oh swift tern duckies
and maybe so say all the little owlies

It's not that the flocks wanna fly
it's just that every tern that tries
to tell me that a dove's near
each and every wing I see
I'm think I'm gonna have to eventually hear the budgie say
though that dove is clear
though all the doves just flew....
Hey, they're just scared
they're blamed for this 'flu

'Flu of a bird, down Blue Jay Way
you don't know where your beak is
you don't like this kind of show biz
(and maybe what you need to know is)
cuckoo does a turd puts it in your way
A swallow makes you hiss,
And your talons makes me frizz

'Flu of a bird, is it an osprey?
You don't know where your beak is
You can't answer this quiz
(and maybe what you need to know is)
'flu from a bird, could it be a jay?
cockatoo? parrot says "is"
Oh swift tern duckies,
And so say all the little owlies contd.....
