Pelican Lyrics

A rare old bird is the pelican

I’m gonna give you a little problem to test your powers of logical thinking

Paid your due, due to go

Staring at a faded glow

Under roofs stay below

Stable not able though

Table desk stare alone

No guests scary home

Well I guess I’ll carry on

With the stuff I barely own

Hairy dome bare bones

Tearing down the terra-dome

Shed a tear, shredded Rome

Where has everybody gone

Barrier baritone

Carrier carry home

Hot desert Arizone

Mapping out the genome

Reasons that resonate

No season to celebrate

Heathens at heavens gate

Pleading to vaccinate

Captions that captivate

Captured take the bait

Don’t talk procrastinate

Fashions that fascinate

A rare old bird is the pelican

His bill holds more than his belly can

He can take in his beak enough food for a week

I’m dammed if I know how the hell he can

I’m gonna give you a little problem to test your powers of logical thinking

Shooting from the balcony

Alcoholic alchemy

Barking down a rabid tree

Havoc turn to harmony

Free my pen from slavery

He resides where ravens be

Hope in a faint melody

Fellow fellows follow he

Broadcasters telling me

Freedom’s now a felony

Your well being will be

Monitored incessantly

Never cease war peace

Take a piece famine feast

Hungry beast say the least

Say your piece call a priest

Lead you on a merry dance

Handled with a heavy hand

Candle lit but no romance

Travel with the ferryman

Destination unknown

Knowing how the bombs blown

Evacuate trombone

Faded light sun glow

A rare old bird is the pelican

His bill holds more than his belly can

He can take in his beak enough food for a week

I’m dammed if I know how the hell he can

I’m gonna give you a little problem to test your powers of logical thinking
