The Bird Who Was Afraid To Fly To High

There was a bird that could fly  
Afraid to fly to high  
His friends & family thought he was nuts  
They told him, then why don't you take the bus?  
   
He said great idea  
So much easier then having this fear  
To and fro, he went all around  
Nearby or to a far away town  
   
One day the bus had a bunch of punks  
They looked at him and called him a cunt  
He got off his seat and pecked out one of their eyes  
The punks began to quiver, they started to cry  
   
The bus driver told them to quiet down or I call the cops  
No one listened, one had a gun and fired a shot  
The driver panicked, swerved the bus into oncoming traffic  
The bus tipped over, the scene was quite tragic  
   
Many perished as the bus caught fire  
No way out, but saying this is making me a liar  
The bird thought to himself, there's got to be a way  
A small opening in a window, he suddenly flew away  
   
He couldn't believe that he was flying high  
He caught up with his family and flew into the sky  
He now can be just like everyone else  
Overcame his fears, doesn't need anymore help
