作曲 : Creagor The ostrich and the egret Had a very fine flat to live Figurine hutch, no the place wasn't much But they got a peacock His belongings were meager but He was pretty would bring good luck They would sing songs around the piano And do the cakewalk He would say what he's gonna do He would say what he wanted to Ostrich and egret were filled with regret But the rent's well worth him He felt things that they'd never felt Like the slap of a feather belt So, still they sit by the fireplace silent A chill ran through them Ostrich and egret and peacock Had very small dreams Thinking of them just reminds me of calendar scenes Nobody's laughing when everyone's weeping, it seems So, that's how we quit the forest The scene wasn't what it used to be The scene is never what it used to be So, that's how we quit the forest The scene wasn't what it used to be The scene is never what it used to be So, that's how we quit the forest
