They were doing a bird count in my neck of the woods
An annual event at the beginning of Spring
If the numbers fall short
There will be grave global wide concern
From America to the rain forests in the dark of Africa
It will upset the very balance of things
Putting the world’s equilibrium totally out of kilter
Soon the whole animal kingdom becomes adversely affected
The food chain faces a disruption of irreversible proportions
From tadpoles to mountain lions
Then finally… to humans
Until we are extinct
No more
Not even a memory
For there will be nothing left to remember us
