Surviving The Winter Pack
Good thing we survived the winter...
Only lost two pups,
could've been worse... (ahhhh)
Frost melted off the ridge,
blood in the snow
Weak ones fell back when the blizzards blow Now the thaw brings
danger from the open sky
Watch the timberline, don't let your guard run dry
Talons waiting up high,
watching from the peak
Hungry broad wings hunting for the meek
No time to feast,
no time to toast
Eyes on the canopy,
eyes on the coast
If you hear the scream of that eagle cry
Run tell the alpha before shadows fly!
Keep the young ones close,
stay in the trees
Death drops down on a summer breeze
Sun hit the valley,
but there's venom in the glare
Giant wings dipping through the mountain air They swoop from the sun
where you cannot look
Snatch a little life that the frost mistook Don't sleep,
don't stray to the clearing stone
One blink, one squeak,
and you're left alone
Pack stays locked, shoulder next to flank
Guarding every trail along the riverbank
No time to feast,
no time to toast
Eyes on the canopy,
eyes on the coast
If you hear the scream of that eagle cry
Run tell the alpha before shadows fly!
Keep the young ones close,
stay in the trees
Death drops down on a summer breeze
Pups!
Get in!
The eagles are circling around you! (grrrrrr)
