Big Bird Doesn't Fly

Big Bird Doesn't Fly is a Sesame Street song by three singing squirrels about how Big Bird, well, doesn't fly.

Lyrics
Squirrels: Big Bird doesn't fly, no, no.

Big Bird doesn't fly, no, no.

Big Bird doesn't fly, no, no.

Big Bird doesn't fly.

Big Bird: I don't fly.

Squirrels: Big Bird doesn't fly.

Big Bird: I don't fly, I just walk on time.

Squirrels: Big Bird doesn't fly, no, no, Big Bird doesn't fly.

Oh, he can hop.

And he can skip right to the fix-it shop.

He likes to roller-skate.

But my, oh, my.

Big Bird: I just don't fly.

Squirrels: Oh, Big Bird doesn't fly, no, no, Big Bird doesn't fly.

He can waddle with a band.

He can leapfrog right to his nest.

He can walk backwards easy as pie.

But my, oh, my.

Big Bird: I just don't fly.

Squirrels: Oh, Big Bird doesn't fly, no, no, Big Bird doesn't fly.

He knows how to sprint.

Yeah, yeah, he comes first in a three-legged race.

He can even jitterbug.

But I don't know why he just doesn't fly.

Pink Squirrel: I don't know why Big Bird doesn't fly!

Squirrels: I don't know why Big Bird doesn't fly.

Pink Squirrel: I don't know why!

Purple and Black Squirrels: I don't know why he doesn't fly.

Pink Squirrel: I don't know why! Why not?! Oh!

Squirrels: Big Bird doesn't fly.
