Lyrics

The ostrich and the egret
Had a very fine flat to let
Figurine hutch, no the place wasn't much, but they
Got a peacock

His belongings were meager but
He was pretty, would bring good luck
They would sing songs all around the piano and
Do the cakewalk

He would say what he's gonna do
He would say what he wanted to
Ostrich and egret were filled with regret, but the
Rent's well worth him

He felt things that they'd never felt
Like the slap of a feather belt
So still they sit by a fireplace silent
A chill ran through them

Ostrich and egret and peacock had very small dreams
Thinking of them just reminds me of calendar scenes
Nobody's laughing when everyone's weeping, it seems

So that's how we quit the forest
The scene wasn't what it used to be
The scene is never what it used to be
So, that's how we quit the forest

The scene wasn't what it used to be
The scene is never what it used to be
So, that's how we quit the forest
