Watch The Birdie
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Watch the birdie, we'll take a camera candid shot
Watch the birdie, come on and give it all you've got
Watch the birdie, just look around and pick a spot
And hold it
Watch the birdie, just strike a funny pose a while
Watch the birdie or you can beat that pose a mile
Watch the birdie and let me see your pretty smile
And hold it
We're looking for a tall dark handsome man
With eyes of blue and the golden tan
Strong white teeth like joel mccray
Hey you, get out of the way
Watch the birdie, we'll take a camera candid shot
Watch the birdie, come on and give it all you've got
Watch the birdie, just look around and pick a spot
And hold it, hold it
Hold it
