Pelicans - Manly Australia


A wonderful bird is the pelican
His beak can hold more than his belly can
He can store in his beak
Enough food for a week
And I don't know how the hell he can
Or something close to that...
Ogden Nash

  1. Actually it goes:

    A wonderful bird is the pelican,
    His bill will hold more than his belican,
    He can take in his beak,
    Food enough for a week,
    But I'm darned if I see how the helican.
