I'm Making a List

I'm making a list and checking it twice,

Gonna mark down who is naughty, not nice.

If your words are not gentle and your science not hard,

I'm not telling you THAT warbler is here in my yard.

If you blast the cat lady 'stead of spooning-feeding her stats,

That will leave her no choice but to lock up those cats,

Then I'm not telling you the Gry's back on its post

And the kestrels are mating and Darcy Road is the host.

If you forget there are children out here on the line

That will all be new Paulsons if given some time,

Then though I did see it, you can just about bet

That I not telling you where's the Xantu's Murrelet.

When the old pro's get cranky and you over-react,

You're missing the point and that's just a fact.

We need science that's hard and words that are gentle

Then you all can come see it; THAT bird's on my lintel.
