Raven and Crow


Ashley Moffat,

Raven and crow, raven and crow
Seemingly similar, so how do I know
Which is a raven or what is a crow?
I see them wherever I go

Chorus: And I say, "Blackbird sitting on the telephone line,
What's your species? What's your name?
Oh, what's your kind?"

Raven and crow, raven and crow
Which one am I? Who wants to know?
I'm the smaller one, and I "caw" with my nose
Am I a raven, or am I a crow? CROW!

Raven and crow, raven and crow
Which one am I? Do you think you know?
My voice is so hoarse, my call is a "croak"
Am I a raven, or am I a crow? RAVEN!

Raven and crow, raven and crow
Which one am I? I bet you want to know!
My beak is much thicker, and longer it grows
Am I a raven, or am I a crow? RAVEN!

Raven and crow, raven and crow
We both have a tail. Look up and you will know
But my tail is rounded and fan-shaped, not pointed
Am I a raven, or am I a crow? CROW!

Raven and crow, raven and crow
Which one am I? Wouldn't you like to know?
I live as far from the city as I can possibly go
Am I a raven, or am I a crow? RAVEN!

And I say, "Blackbird sitting on the telephone line,

You gave me knowledge, you gave me clues
So I can make up my own mind."
