lyrics

In the early days of springtime,
As the sap begins to climb,
And the critters moan and whisper, stirring in their lairs.
There's a certain special feeling
That sets their hearts a'reeling
As they wake, and feel the urge to sort themselves in pairs.

Some announce themselves with keening,
While others take to preening,
Trying hard to catch someone's ear or eye.
Horns begin to rattle,
As the bulls begin to battle
And bugle their desire, as the cows look on and sigh.

Look at me! (Mate with me!)
Can't you see (Mate with me!)
That we
Should be together.
Don't be absurd! (Mate with me!)
Haven't you heard? (Mate with me!)
That's just for birds
Of a feather.

The grouse is roughly drumming,
The frogs and toads are humming
Singing in a chorus that is deafening to hear.
The bison grunt and snort
To announce they're paying court
Seeking out a new love, at this special time of year.

Look at me! (Mate with me!)
Can't you see (Mate with me!)
That we
Should be together.
Don't be absurd! (Mate with me!)
Haven't you heard? (Mate with me!)
That's just for birds
Of a feather.
