Ladies and gentlemen
we present to you
Hopelessly Optimistic Flightless Bird
Here we see the Bearded Cardinal
in his native habitat
Welcome to the Walmart parking lot
Coolin' off, beneath the shade
of a '92 Cadillac
Could life get any better?
But there's a sad truth
like a flower that won't blossom
he'll never do the one thing
that makes being a bird awesome...
Unlike his bird brethren
traversing the sky
the Bearded Cardinal
will never fly...
Excuse me,
I'm sorry, I couldn't help but overhear
did you say I can't fly?
Yeah.
You're the Bearded Cardinal,
a flightless bird.
You know what?
I'm cool with that.
In fact, I see it as a positive!
I want to sing about it...
I got a big beak
feathers on fleek
I keep cool in the heat by
flapping my vestigial wings.
I'm down to Earth,
In fact I hate heights.
Who needs working wings
when you're this fly?
I regurgitate meals
into my kids/ mouths...
I never get sucked into a jet
or hit the side of a house...
Here comes a shopping cart
at a pretty high speed
If I was a bettin' bird
I'd bet the carts about to hit me...
Ohhhhhh
It did
Ohhhhhh
It hurts
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh
ohhh
ohh
I'm dead.
Oh man, I think he is dead....
He couldn't fly
but he's a pretty good lip syncer.
