one day i was walking i passed a big tree
i saw 3 cockatiels staring at me
one big one small one teeny tiny more
one by one they stared at my eyes
they gave me a shock full of surprise
then i gave them a frown as i walked away
i didn't think they would follow my way
they started chasing me up and down
until i reached the town
i shouted with all my might
these cockatiels are giving me a fright
the butcher the baker the teacher the preacher they all came to me
scared saying what can it be
the cockatiels looked at us and said hello
it turns out that cockatiels aren't that bad
it turns out i am feeling quite glad
i went to my home happy and bright
thinking everything is alright
