Sing for your supper, and you'll get breakfast; 

Songbirds always eat

If their song is sweet to hear.

Sing for your luncheon, and you'll get dinner--- 

Dine with wine of choice

If romance is in your voice.



I heard from wise canary,

Trilling makes a fellow willing;

So, little swallow, swallow now.

Now is the time to

Sing for your supper and you'll get breakfast.

Songbirds are not dumb; 

They don't buy a crumb of bread,

It's said...

So sing and you'll be fed.

Songbirds are not dumb;

They never buy a crumb of bread,

So sing, and you'll be fed, oh yeah--- 

Just sing and you'll be fed.
