🎵 Bird’s The Word // by The Rivingtons

7 ContributorsBird’s The Word Lyrics This song and The Rivington’s “Papa Oom Mow Wow” served as the blueprints for the Trashmen’s hit “Surfin' Bird”. Swingin' this dance now to hit the scene It's got the latest groove and it's really clean Haven't you heard about the bird? Don't you know that the bird's the word? Come on, jump here and get on your knees And get to flappin' your wings in the west or the east Haven't you heard about the bird? Don't you know that the bird's the word? Bird, bird, bird, bird, bird Well, they're dancin' this bird in the east and the west Make this dance and you'll look the best Haven't you heard about the bird? Don't you know that the bird's the word?
