Ha Ha I just changed the words a bit to the tune of Big John.............just having some fun wasting my time on this rainy day :alieneyesa:
Big Bird

Every morning at the pond, you could see him arrive.
He stood 3 foot 3, weighed 25.
Kind of broad at the shoulders, broad at the hip.
And everybody knew you didn't give no lip to Big Bird.

Big Bad Bird

Nobody seemed to know where Bird called home
He just drifted into the pond and stayed all alone.
He didn't say much, kind of quiet and shy
And if you spoke at all, you'd just said hi to Big Bird.
Somebody said he came from New Orleans,
Where he got into a fight over an Egret Queen.
With a crash and a blow from a huge right foot,
he sent a Louisiana Bird to the promised land.

Then came the day at the bottom of the pond,
when a drift log cracked and fish started crying.
Minnows were praying, and hearts beat fast
and every fish thought they had breathed their last
cept' one huge Koi.
Through the water and the muck of this man made hell,
swam the giant of a Koi that the minnows knew well.
Koi grabbed a sagging tree branch and gave out with a groan,
and like a giant oak tree he faced off w/ Big Bird

And with all of his strength, Koi gave a mighty shove.
Then a minnow yelled out, 'there's hope from above!'.
And 20 fish swam and hid from the fight
All of them down there peeking out to the light
And as gallons of water splashed out of that pond,
everybody knew it was the end of the line, for Big Bird.

Now the pond was re-opened and not left a pit,
and they just placed a marble stand in front of it.
These few words are written on that stand,
'At the bottom of this pond, swims one Hell of a fish, Big Koi'
Big Koi
Big Koi
Big Bad Koi
Big Koi.
