歌词

Who wrote the rule that said a thing with feathers absolutely has to fly ?
Fly ? Why must they fly ?
Some creatures have two wings that flap
But you won ' t find them up there in the sky
Try , try , try
They ' re not up there in the sky
Gravity , they don ' t defy
They ' ll never soar , won ' t even try
Well ... Have you heard ?
( Have you heard ?)
About the flightless bird ?
( About the flightless bird ?)
With wings that flap they ' ve been supplied
But after that , things went awry
Well , have you heard ?
( Have you heard ?)
About the flightless bird ?
( About the flightless bird ?)
They ' re quite content there on the ground
To see them don ' t look up , look down
( Ostrich , kiwi , penguin , emu )
Penguins swim where it ' s all frozen
For flying , they ' ve not been chosen
Ostriches are fast as lightning
Do they fly ?
Who , us ?
Too frightening !
See the emu from Australia and the great New Zealand kiwi
Some birds were born to fly , but I just gotta be me !
We won ' t cry , we won ' t frown !
We ' re happy right here on the ground ! Gravity , we don ' t defy !
We ' ll never soar , won ' t even try !
Well ...
Have you heard ?
( Have you heard ?)
About the flightless bird ?
( About the flightless bird ?)
With wings that flap they ' ve been supplied
But after that , things went awry
Well , have you heard ?
( Have you heard ?)
About the flightless bird ?
( About the flightless bird ?)
They ' re quite content there on the ground To see them don ' t look up , look down
( Ostrich , kiwi , penguin , emu )
So what if we can ' t fly ?
Neither you can
