Saragun Springs Verse: I Am Big Ed

(Note-Big Ed came to me with an idea that was a good one because I had none for this particular day. In the Springs the arrival of any sort of idea is gold. So, with apologies to Neil Diamond, here is the realm’s number one singing Woodpecker, Big Ed –LA)

Did you ever read about a Frog

Who dreamed about being king

So the story goes

But since I am naturally illiterate

Printed stories are lost on me

Dont’cha you know

I am Big Ed

I can fly

I can beat the hell out of shit

With my beak that’s why

I am Big Ed

The Northern Flicker dude

And everyone will care

Even that chair, with the attitude

  1. Hi Leila!!!

    Success! Finally figured out a way to get back in.

    Awesome song today! It sings so much in so few words and with such an original and knowing tone that it feels Chaucerian. (I remember an interview where Orson Welles, (i.e. Falstaff), called Chaucer “the soul of England.”)
