TURKEY VULTURE (the following may be sung to the Beatles' tune "Come Together") You see him fly, he look like Elvis Presley. When he's On the ground he look like Quasimodo. He got Hole completely through his beak. Don't you get too near him -- you may catch some disease! When he's growed up he look so Hideous but when he Just a baby he's the Cutest thing, but he say, "You come near me -- I'll barf on you!" Just you go and try it, if you don't think it's true! Turkey vulture! Bad bird! Ug-ly! He got bad acne, he got Halitosis, he got Body odor, he eat Rotting meat, he like to Poke his head in smelly goo. Someone's got to do it -- just be glad it's not you! Turkey vulture! Bad bird! Ug-ly! This ugly vulture, he is So disgusting! But I'd Rather have him than be Buried waist-deep in the Bodies of dead animals. Sickening to look at but his purpose fulfilled. He got no feathers on his Ugly head, and that is Fine for him because he Got this thing, he like to Put his head in carrion. Someone's got to do it -- well, the vulture's the one! Turkey vulture! Bad bird! Ug-ly! Turkey vulture... Turkey vulture... Turkey vulture... (That's the lot...hope you've enjoyed these four musical diversions!) -- Sam Conway * dragon@eleazar.dartmouth.edu * Don't mention the war!
