Lazy Bird
A bird perched in a leafy tree
Looking all around
It spied a big fat juicy worm
Wriggling on the ground
This lazy bird kept looking
At the worm from up the tree
And thinking dreamily
I'll have that worm for tea
The worm was oblivious
Of that lazy bird sitting up high
Or of the bigger bird
Who appeared in the sky
The big bird flew over
Into a neighbouring tree
Spied the fat squirming worm
And ate him for his tea
