[00:01.000] 作词 : John Grant
[00:56.632] Jill and I were talking just the other day about the bowerbirdies and the little houses they made
[01:05.699] They collect sticks and objects in lovely colours
[01:10.948] In order to attract a special and suitable lover
[01:15.444] And David thinks the hummingbirds are fascinating
[01:20.152] I wonder if they invented the art of speed dating?
[01:24.676] They flap their wings 50 to 200 times per second
[01:29.285] I guess that's how they get those crazy pecs
[01:34.531] But it was the flight of the common snipe
[01:44.884] Which kept me up in my bed at night
[01:53.736] And I thought about what it was to him
[02:03.090] A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim
[02:13.083] Have you ever seen a picture of a cassowary?
[02:17.232] It has a six-inch claw which I find rather scary
[02:21.703] If you're not careful it may very well eviscerate you
[02:26.579] And, if you ask me, that's a dinosaur
[02:30.980] And what is up with the shoebill stork?
[02:34.970] It looks like it's about to stab you with a fork
[02:40.316] And yet apparently it's highly prized
[02:44.293] Perhaps because its beak is very large in size
[02:49.973] But it was the flight of the common snipe
[02:59.310] Which kept me up in my bed at night
[03:06.835] And I thought about what it was to him
[03:18.147] A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim
[04:06.452] And I thought about what it was to him
[04:16.155] A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim
[04:23.678] But it was the flight of the common snipe
[04:33.646] Which kept me up in my bed at night
[04:40.724] And I thought about what it was to him
[04:52.451] A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim
