Rumble In Bird Town

The Buzzards are looking to start a fight
The Flamingos are looking to start a fight
It looks like there will be trouble today 
There is a rumble on the way

The Buzzards, their babes, their Harley bikes
The Flamingos their leathers, their motor trikes
Its all they can take
Its all about the turf they call the "Lake"

It looks like there's going to be a fight
There's going to be blood tonight
Both gangs came together
But all they did was ruffle their feathers

For the Flamingos like the Buzzard's leathers
And the Buzzards like the Flamingo's feathers
They forgot all about the fight
It looks like there will be a party tonight

This was delightful!... The ending made me think of the song, ”Rockin’ Robin”-by the Jackson Five :)

That is a fabulous idea! Every time I read this I'll think of that song. Thanks P.S.
