The Lyrics
My pet kestrel off flew,
past the skyline.
She happily flapped from my view.
She was flyin’,
rapidly flyin.
She will not be landing
here upon the ground
But I am here standing,
hoping that she will come back around.
Sans my kestrel I’m blue—
so blue I’m cryin’
and sighin’.
Off she flew,
so I’m blue.
But where to—
Xanadu?
And what now?
I guess I’ll snare
another birdie,
though don’t know how.
A stuffed kestrel will do
for me just fine.
past the skyline.
She happily flapped from my view.
She was flyin’,
rapidly flyin.
She will not be landing
here upon the ground
But I am here standing,
hoping that she will come back around.
Sans my kestrel I’m blue—
so blue I’m cryin’
and sighin’.
Off she flew,
so I’m blue.
But where to—
Xanadu?
And what now?
I guess I’ll snare
another birdie,
though don’t know how.
A stuffed kestrel will do
for me just fine.
