An owl sat alone on the branch of a tree

And she was as quiet as quiet could be
"Twas night and her eyes were wide open like this

She looked all around, not a thing did she miss
Some little birds perched on the branch of the tree

And they were as quiet as quiet could be
The solemn old owl said, "Whoo -whoo -whoo"
And up jumped the birds and away they all flew
