What would you say

if the blue footed boobie wanted to be
the craziest bird living near the North Sea

from Galapagos Island she would make an escape
moving to Connecticut, landing near the cape

what would be her first step? What else would she do?
Would she demand a rain slicker and maybe some glue?

Would she go to school and show off her blue feet?
Would the teacher say, howdy, your look is a treat?

If the blue footed boobie wanted to live with you
What would you say? What would you do?

Would your mother say yes? Is your father easy?
Would they love a boobie living near the North Sea?
