Is Dupsha Dove a song about brain parts?

I saw something on the web which said that the birds listed in the Lou and Peter Berryman song "Dupsha Dove" refer to ACTUAL PARTS OF THE HUMAN BRAIN. Is this true? Let me see .... Jerdane Bird (danger), Aareful beak (be careful), Thinbrea Bird - Thowtrea Bird (breath in breath out), Dupsha Dove (shut up).
   I looked up some websites listing parts of the brain and I didn't see any connections. Does anybody see something that I'm missing? If this is so then Peter Berryman is even more of a genious than we already knew he is.

I take it as negative attributes of the human psyche. In any case, it is a fun song.

I too heard that; and also that "gullible" has been taken out of the Concise Oxford Dictionary.

Lyrics to THE DUPSHA DOVE are posted mysteriously in the thread called "BS: Secret Santa Hints Thread Part Five."

You can hear a recording of THE DUPSHA DOVE in an archived radio program: Click to play. The song begins 3 minutes 56 seconds from the beginning of the segment.

Hey everybody,
I'm searching through my posting archive this afternoon and I realize that I have ABSOLUTELY NO RECOLLECTION of ever creating this thread. How about that for missing brain parts? :) I'll bet that Peter Berryman could write a great song about this phenomenon!
