BE a Bard
a bird with the Word
SINGING
be a BARD
WHAT once was
won’t work NOW
WORK on word STUFF
a poem in a round
BE a BARD
BEST music in TOWN
Now was the old STUFF
rub a dub BAD
DIG up a new old BOOK
that shows the ROUGH
we thought so SAD
WAS really ancient lore
that made their readers GLAD
SO SINGING
BE a BARD
a Bird
a Word
a Poem never Heard
from a Herd
It flies though the Mind
with new lessons to Find
NO POEM
some Say
OR SONG by night
or by Day
IS EVER completely NEW
SINGING
BE
a BARD
a Bird
and dance with the
new beat TOO
SINGING
BE a BARD
WHAT once was
won’t work NOW
WORK on the new stuff
just coming round
BE a BARD
a Bird
and warble the beat
syncopated to Compete
and take down
the Music
and DANCE to confuse it
BEST music around
in TOWN
