Bantam Cock - Jake Thackray[00:00:01]

It was a grand upstanding bantam cock [00:00:18]

So brisk and stiff and spry [00:00:21]

With springy step and jaunty plume[00:00:23]

And a purposeful look in his eye [00:00:26]

In his little black blinking eye he had [00:00:28]

I took him to the coop and introduced him[00:00:37]

To my seventeen wide-eyed hens [00:00:39]

He tupped and he tupped as a hero tups[00:00:42]

And he bowed from the waist to them all and then[00:00:45]

He upped and he tupped 'em all again [00:00:48]

He did [00:00:49]

And then upon the peace of me[00:00:55]

Ducks and me geese[00:00:57]

He rudely did intrude [00:00:58]

With glazed eyes and open mouths[00:01:01]

They bore it all with fortitude[00:01:04]

And a little bit of gratitude they did [00:01:06]

He jumped my giggling guinea fowl[00:01:14]

And forced his attentions upon[00:01:17]

My twenty hysterical turkeys and[00:01:19]

A visiting migrant swan [00:01:22]

But the bantam thundered on he did [00:01:25]

He ravished my fan-tailed pigeons and[00:01:33]

Me lily-white columbines [00:01:36]

And while I was locking up the budgerigar[00:01:38]

He jumped my parrot from behind;[00:01:41]

She was sitting on me shoulder at the time [00:01:44]

And all of a sudden with a gasp and a gulp[00:01:52]

He clapped his hands to his head [00:01:55]

Fell flat on his back with his toes in the air [00:01:57]

My bantam cock lay dead[00:02:00]

And the vultures circled overhead they did [00:02:03]

What a champion brute; what a noble cock;[00:02:11]

What a way to live and to die [00:02:13]

I was diggin' him a grave to save his bones[00:02:16]

From the hungry buzzards in the sky[00:02:19]

When the bantam opened up a sly little eye [00:02:21]

He gave me a grin and a terrible wink [00:02:30]

The way that rapists do [00:02:32]

He said 'You see them big daft[00:02:36]

Buggers up there [00:02:39]

They'll be down in a minute or two[00:02:41]

They'll be down in a minute or two '[00:02:43]
