The Spoonbill Generator

Dodgy Flaps

Too gracious for a moonlight flit [Roland]

I unhooked my diaphanous wings [F]

And sat awhile in solemn thought [Beefy ]

Musing on my copper pot [F]

I know no better place to sit [N]

Too nervous for a line of whizz [Big Andy]

The policemen departed for the coast [Apsley]

And drove awhile in hot pursuit [N]

Of various sacks of soot [Roland]

His beer, meanwhile, losing fizz [F]

Too ugly for a photo shoot [N]

The flowery man sat melancolic [Big Andy]

His scent was gone, his petals limp [F]

His depot gaunt and damp [Roland]

He's just one more denuded coot [F]
