The bloody blue tits living next to us
Used tweet and sing and chirp and cuss
But now they’ve had that lottery win
Its all classic music played over the din
They have every luxury known to bird
Golden cages, butlers, absurd!
A new cuttle fish to gorge on each day
Now they’re ‘ posh’ they don’t look our way
They even have a silver perch
To swing and play whistle and lurch
And now today an Electricians been
And its been installed and quite obscene
Its round and shiny and they have one each
Oh such luxury is out of our reach
It runs on ‘ electrickery’ not even gas
And they sit all day and warm their ass
In a list
