Hey, Little Birdie
(c) 1982 Carole Rose Livingston
1.
Hey, little birdie,
High in a tree,
Fly on down here
And sing your song to me.
Oh no, no, no,
That'll never be.
I'll stay right here,
Safe in my tree.
2.
Hey, little birdie,
Won't you come with me?
I'll give you a cage
Of gold and ivory.
Oh no, no, no,
That'll never be.
I'll stay right here,
Safe in my tree.
3.
Hey, little birdie,
What will you do
If I get a little net
And throw it over you?
Oh no, no, no,
That'll never be.
I'll fly higher up,
Safe in my tree.
4.
Hey, little birdie,
What will you sing?
I'll sing of winter
Turning into spring.
Safe in my tree
And far from any harm,
I'll sing of cold days
Turning into warm.
5.
Hey, little birdie,
Your song is so sweet.
I'll get a little rope
And tie it 'round your feet.
Oh, no, no, no,
That'll never be.
I'll fly far away
To another tree.
6. (Repeat Stanza 1.)

Got the Sun in the Morning and the Wind at Night
(tune: Got the Sun in the Morning)
(words: Carole Livingston, +...)
The word is out across the nation
We're saying NO to radiation
Got the sun in the morning and the wind at night
We're saying NO to radiation
We don't want your nuclear power station
Got the sun in the morning and the wind at night
We don't want your nuclear power station
We've got better sources of illumination (refrain)
We've got better sources of illumination
We don't need nuclear electrification (refrain)
We don't need nuclear electrification
We don't want to gamble with annihilation (refrain)
We don't want to gamble with annihilation
To make more profit for your corporatiion (refrain)
What good will stockholders' profits be
If they have two heads or three?
The people all around the nation
Support the Shoreham demonstration
Got the sun in the morning and the wind in the evening
We're all right.
