Analysis of Bird
Luke Breen 1998 (United States)
Bird
By: Luke Breen
O, wouldn’t it be nice to be a bird
Instead of a flying turd
Or a drowning cheese curd
Trying to come up for a breath of air
Running like a hare
Will get you, No where
No need to stare
Or act like you care
Feeling weird
You are not needed to be feared
Once your thoughts are cleared
Maybe you can grow a beard
And stand up, and cheer
Come on and grab your beer
