Ostrich

Yes I'm lying on the floor
How'd I end up here, you may well question
What happened right before my fall?
What caused my state of total apprehension?

I'm slowly coming around
No longer cowered
I've a tale to tell
How my day it soured

There's no keeping me down
I'm back up on my boots
The dirt I'm dusting off now.....

Goddamnit
Ostrich
Coming at me anew
An ostrich
Well I guess I'd better move
Ostrich
Need to escape this emu
Well, ostrich

This ain't cool
Deja vu
What to do?

I just came to buy some eggs
A dozen, sold by my local farmer
Sign said that I should help myself
If only I had seen the warning feathers

I've got no problem with cows
I love my llamas
Who knew something fowl
Lurked on the pastures

When I first looked around
Just saw goats and a ewe
Had my head in the ground

That stupid
Ostrich
Hidden just out of view
An ostrich
Making a real sudden move
Ostrich
Should be locked up at the zoo
This ostrich

Flightless ghoul
Bug-eyed too
It's so cruel

My cautionary tale should be for you sufficient warning
With it I lured you over, made you listen to my story
My forever gratitude that you came here to help me
You showed up, thought to save me
But see that now you are me

(Now you are me)
This ordeal for me now is over
(Now you are me)
As I have brought the beast another
(Now you are me)
Goodbye, I mean it now with love yeah
It's my time to recover

The ostrich
now it's coming for you
An ostrich
and I'm no longer in view
Ostrich
But wait, hold on there are two
Ostriches

I've been duped
Trapped us both
Me and you

What to do
Deja vu

I'm the fool
