Bird flying, let's fly
Way* way bird
Way way bird is flying
Bird flying, let us fly
Bird told me its flying again
Way way bird, way way bird
Bird flying, going again
Way way bird, way why bird
Bird flying, flying flying again
Let's fly, fly away,
Way way bird, why why bird flying
Bird flying, flying, flying
Way way bird, way way bird is flying.
Notes
*"Way" expresses surprise. It's pronounced like "why".
