They came prepared for war please don’t ask me what for Yes what I saw I relate that’s for sure and nothing more They form a little band all converse near the back door Pointing to the light fixtures they planned to rebuild there I made it clear to their leader that he has to take it elsewhere Once is enough and twice is an offense warrants a defense How they quarrel and curse looking me straight in the eye Deciding if and when I should die the leader asks them why Saying out loud my guilt is trespassing and destruction of property But what should I have done at their house was to rubbishes It needed to be relocated and for that, I could hardly wait And do not be late today is the day to evacuate birds and nest All day they complain about moving to a different part of the porch Voweying to take revenge on the brute that destroyed their nest They collected an army of robins and march them up due west I stood my ground no tear could be found I had to pass the test The robins vow to continue the fight as they all flew down south I will never forget the war of the robins a nest above my porch
