lyrics

Sleek feathers fanning out from its wings, the creature flies
In circles, funneling high above its next meal
The gentle current keeps him afloat on the breeze, like a kite
He twists and turns, a black silhouette on the cloudless sky

CHORUS:
Somebody points and says "Look at the bird!
Oh wait, it's only a vulture."
And the hearts of the humans fell to the ground
Like a hawk collecting prey
Ragged and gangly, wobbly frame
What's wrong with being a vulture?
The unsung hero of the ecosphere
Seeing you fly has made my day

You are not only a vulture to me, my red-faced friend,
You're beautiful - descending toward the carcass nearby
Cloak of feathers sweeping the earth of its dead as life goes on
Keeping our world cleaner, doing what nobody wants to do

CHORUS
