Of ritual drumming although at first glance
They peck at the ground and they strut out of stride
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
You thought you could run but you won't take a chance
Sometimes people build you up just so they can knock you down
It's not an experience if they can't bring someone along
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
Like whippets they dance in a curly-queue dance
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
They hang on emotions they bottle inside
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
Perhaps you'll forget that you've forgot for awhile
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
Or maybe join them 'cause it had to be
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
Or perhaps you'll laugh and you make them all smile
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
Sometimes they will have you there 'cause they need someone around
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
Perhaps you'll receive invitations for tea
Of pulses and ringing and campfire chants
Birds of a feather are flocking outside
