《The Ostrich》歌词

[00:00:00] The Ostrich - Flanders & Swann

[00:00:05] Peek-a-Boo I can't see you

[00:00:08] Everything must be grand

[00:00:10] Boo-ka-Pee they can't see me

[00:00:13] As long as I've got me head in the sand

[00:00:16] Peek-a-Boo it may be true

[00:00:19] There's something in what you've said

[00:00:21] But we've got enough troubles in everyday life

[00:00:24] I just bury me head

[00:00:27] Oh Ostrich consider hw the world we know

[00:00:30] Is trembling on the brink

[00:00:32] Have you heard the news may I hear your views

[00:00:35] Will you tell me what you think

[00:00:39] The Ostrich lifted its head from the sand

[00:00:42] About an inch or so;

[00:00:45] 'You will please excuse but disturbing news

[00:00:48] I have no wish to know '

[00:00:51] Oooh Peek-a-Boo I can't see you

[00:00:55] Everything must be grand

[00:00:58] Boo-ka-Pee they can't see me

[00:01:01] As long as I've got me head in the sand

[00:01:04] Peek-a-Boo it may be true

[00:01:07] There's something in what you've said

[00:01:09] But we've got enough troubles in everyday life

[00:01:12] I just bury me head

[00:01:15] Then I noticed suddenly where we were

[00:01:18] I saw what time it was

[00:01:20] Make haste I said It'll be too late

[00:01:23] We must leave this place because

[00:01:26] He stuffed his wingtips into his ears;

[00:01:30] He would not hear me speak

[00:01:33] And back in the soft Saharan sand

[00:01:37] He plunged his yellow beak

[00:01:41] Oooh Peek-a-Boo I can't see you

[00:01:45] Everything must be grand

[00:01:48] Boo-ka-Pee they can't see me

[00:01:51] As long as I've got me head in the sand

[00:01:54] Peek-a-Boo it may be true

[00:01:57] There's something in what you've said

[00:01:59] But we've got enough troubles in everyday life

[00:02:02] I just bury me

[00:02:16] From a sheltered oasis a mile away

[00:02:20] I observed that dreadful scene

[00:02:23] And a single plume came floating down

[00:02:27] Where my Ostrich friend had been

[00:02:30] Because he could not bear the sound

[00:02:34] Of these words I had left unsaid;

[00:02:38] 'Here in this nuclear testing ground

[00:02:42] Is no place to bury your head '
