6 little blackbirds sitting on the stairs
1 got up and wondered off somewheres
5 little blackbirds shaking paper cups
2 screaming blasphemy when you won't fill it up
3 little blackbirds mumbling in the street
go around them Pharisee, be careful who you greet!
Those same 3 little blackbirds huddled round a fire
sitting in a cardboard box
in your old attire.
look away walk away
you're safe inside your own doorway
who cares if theirs is made of a tarp
and 6 of them froze last night in the park?
