about

A song that gently takes the listener back to that ancient wisdom that knew you could find out what was going on in the forest by listening to the birds.

lyrics

Little Birdie Told Me

A little birdie told me
As he was passing bye
A little birdie told me, he wouldn’t tell a lie
Moving through the forest
From tree to tree he goes
That little birdie knows

Hey, what’s that you say my little one
Them seeds are very good
Come quickly with your family
We really think you should

Hey why you chirping over there
Is there an old snake in that grass
Get your friends and catch him
For he’s where your children pass

Hey where you gone my feathered friend
Is that bushfire way too near
It’s time to move to safety
Come on – let’s get out of here
Hey we like your pretty song
You say our friends are on the way
They’re walking through the forest
Can you hear their children play
