lyrics

My little pal goes twitching twitching
She loves to watch our feathered friends

You call her in to have some food
But she stays outside with the sparrows' brood
She thinks the TV's awfully dull
She prefers to listen to the laughing gull

My little pal goes twitching twitching
She loves to watch our feathered friends

You ask her if she'll come and play
But she's with the doves, which coo all day
Then off she runs to her favourite hide
To glimpse the herons by the riverside

My little pal goes twitching twitching
She loves to watch our feathered friends

My little pal goes twitching twitching
She loves to watch our feathered friends

You ask her in to watch cartoons
But she prefers to stay where the bittern booooooooms
She says, "no wait! there's the song of the plover
There's so much more in this world to discover."

My little pal goes twitching twitching
She loves to watch our feathered friends

Then one day she found a crested parakeet
And she never came back inside to eat
I think she's still out there in the hide
Listening to the robins,
egrets,
kookookookookaburras,
nightingales,
eagles,
tawny owls,
and don't forget the common eiderduck!

My little pal goes twitching twitching
She loves to watch our feathered friends
