Birdies - Pere Ubu

I gotta get holda myself

I gotta pull myself up by my socks

I gotta grab myself by the collar and shake!

The birdies are singing

The birdies are saying what I want to say

Now watch this close

(Oh, I should say 'closely.')

Here we go!

The foot goes up

And the foot goes down

And so I move along

And actually get somewhere

Actually get somewhere

And when the feet

The big feet get tangled…

Bang!

And I fall down on the ground?

Well, I get back up

I get right back up!

A tree

A dog

A cat

A house

A car

Fireplug

Mailman

Dumpdee dump

Dumpdee da

Look at me!

I’ve got my feet on the ground

And my head in the air

And I’m moving along

The wind’s going through

And my hair’s standing straight out behind

And I’m moving along

I’m standing up

And I’m going Some-Where
