Peta Loves Our Feathered Friends

PETA Sings, “Oh How We Love 
Our Feathered Friends”

By Elton Camp

For the rights of birds, PETA is an advocate
Those who mistreat them, they truly do hate

A flock of blackbirds plagued a neighborhood
To drive them away, residents did all they could

A PETA member learned of their cruel plot
And said to do such wrong, they should not

“Blackbirds have the same right to live as you.
You should happily tolerate damage they do.”

“Their chattering sounds like sweet music to me.
Bird droppings on your cars I don’t mind to see.”

The folks finally forced the birds to move away
To the PETA member’s block they went to stay

When his own car the filthy droppings did cover
“Kill those birds,” yelled the fickle animal lover
