For SINSULL (and others discussing the Lyre Bird):

THE DUPSHA DOVE
copyright 2000 Lou and Peter Berryman

Upon a main branch, above my brain stem,
There sings a Jerdane Bird. You may have heard of him.
He goes: "Jer dane jer dane jer dane jer danger danger danger danger danger danger danger danger dane"
And that's the Jerdane Bird
Who sings a single word.

Above the Jerdane Bird 'sa bird who needs to speak
Known as the Chowtwa Hawk, the chatty Chowtwa Hawk.
He warns me: "Chowtwa chowtwa chowtwa chowtwa chowt watch out watch out watch out watch out watch out watch out watch out wa"
That's the Chowtwa Hawk,
A bird who lives to talk.

Beside the Chowtwa Hawk, 'sa bird who needs to speak
Known as the Airfulbeak, the mighty Airfulbeak
Who warns me: "Airfulbeak airfulbeak airfulbeak airfulbeak airful be careful be careful be careful be careful be careful be careful be careful beak"
Ah, the Airfulbeak,
A bird who needs to speak.

But it's the Dupsha Dove who has the final say
And to the other birds proceeds to sing away.
She tells them: "Dupsha dupsha dupsha dupsha dup shaddup shaddup shaddup shaddup shaddup shaddup shaddup sha"
How I dearly love
The little Dupsha Dove!

And when the Dupsha Dove has had the final word,
She brings the Thinbrea Bird to join the Thoutbrea Bird.
They whisper: "Thinbrea thoutbrea thinbrea thoutbrea thinbrea thout breathe in breathe out breathe in breathe out breathe in breathe out brea"
How I dearly love
The little Dupsha Dove!
