On Pee Wees

Of Australian birds a favorite to many is the black and white pee wee
Their kind every day i do hear and do see
They build a cup shaped nest of mud on fork of branch of tree
The female lays pale eggs with brown spots of five, four or three
Also known as mudlark, murray magpie or magpie lark
Birds seen all over Australia in back yards or town park
Birds once heard and once seen that one can never mistake
They call out pee wee in the grey of daybreak
They sing on all Seasons every day of the year
And their familiar song one often does hear
Of the birds of Australia one of the best known
One can say of pee wees they have ways of their own
They can be seen on the town streets, back yards or town park
Also known as mudlark, murray magpie or to some magpie lark.
