Yellow bird, up high in banana tree.
Yellow bird, you sit all alone like me.
Better fly away, in the sky away,
Picker coming soon, pick from night to noon.
Black and yellow you, like banana too
They may pick you some day.
Wish that I was a yellow bird,
I’d fly away with you.
But I am not a yellow bird
So here I sit, nothing else to do.
YELLOW BURT, THE SOFTEST COPPER ROUND ‘ERE
YELLOW BURT, A COWARD, A WHIMP, THAT’S CLEAR
ARE YOUR P.C. FRIENDS ON THE BEAT AGAIN
THAT IS VERY SAD, MAKES ME FEEL SO BAD
KNOCK HIS HELMET OFF, KICK N’ SLAP THE PUFF
HE’S A YELLOW BELLY
BURT’S A BLEEDIN’ SOFTY…
