Letra de The Common Snipe

They flap their wings 50 to 200 times per second I guess that's how they get those crazy pecs But it was the flight of the common snipe Which kept me up in my bed at night And I thought about what it was to him A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim Have you ever seen a picture of a cassowary? It has a six-inch claw which I find rather scary If you're not careful it may very well eviscerate you And, if you ask me, that's a dinosaur And what is up with the shoebill stork? It looks like it's about to stab you with a fork And yet apparently it's highly prized Perhaps because its beak is very large in size But it was the flight of the common snipe Which kept me up in my bed at night And I thought about what it was to him A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim And I thought about what it was to him A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim But it was the flight of the common snipe Which kept me up in my bed at night And I thought about what it was to him A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim
