Come celebrate a clever bird at nine



Magpies "borrow" bits and pieces
Then place them so they belong
Though doing so won't make a sound
It's still a lovely song

Swing AND voltage at nine



You know I love that big band sound,
Crowds, and a thumping beat
If you decide to come round
You'd make my dreams complete.

Sweep it up at nine



Tonight we're playing jazz and swing.
Come on by if that's your thing.

Don't you dare retire at nine



You hunt me down, as if in sport
Why? Am I not a human being?
What could your puny eyes report?
You can't believe the things I've seen

The only reason for my return:
To live a life that's fully mine
Then ignore all other concerns
And ask for what I want: more time
