about

Given that we're mammals, this seems to make sense to me ...

lyrics

If you want to fly, wouldn't you rather be a bat?
Flutter through the moonlit skies, and cool things like that?
Birds are kind of stupid, they don't know where it's at
so if you want to fly, wouldn't you rather be a bat?

Flap your wings, catch a bug, hang upside down!
(Damn right!)

And how would you like to be descended from a lizard?
Itchy feathers on your back, and pebbles in your gizzard?
Know for being dirty and your reputation deserved?
How would you like to be descended from a lizard?

Snap your beak, eat a worm, lay an egg! (Yuck)

Flap your wings, catch a bug, hand upside down!

Suck my blood!
Just kidding! They don't really do that.
Well, maybe a couple of 'em.
Flap them wings!
Get down, get fluttery!
Got those little thumbs!
What an ugly nose though.
They're in your hair!
(No they aren't. They never do. It's an old wives' tale)
(ever try to get batshit out of your carpet?)
