They sing in the daytime, nightfall and daybreak
And sometimes at night them by their songs none should not mistake
The flute like notes of the Aussie magpie melodious and clear
The birds who do sing every day of the year
The black and white birds the size of a medium sized crow
So little about them i can claim to know
Though i see them often many times every day
They live in small family groups since this is their way
For their aggressive behavior towards other birds and humans at their breeding time they are well known
One might say of them that they have ways of their own
They kill smaller birds which they pluck for to eat
It runs in their family the fondness of meat
Still they do have quite a beautiful song
And by voice alone one could not get them wrong.
