I saw a bird (I saw a bird)
With a yellow bill (With a yellow bill)
It landed on (It landed on)
My window sill (My window sill)
I coaxed it in (I coaxed it in)
With a piece of bread (With a piece of bread)
And then I hit (and then I hit)
It on the head (It on the head.)

I saw a bird (I saw a bird)
With a yellow bill (With a yellow bill)
It landed on (It landed on)
My window sill (My window sill)
I coaxed it in (I coaxed it in)
With a lump of cheese (With a lump of cheese)
And then I smacked (and then I smacked)
It on the knees (It on the knees.)

Continue in a similar vein, coaxing the bird in and dealing with it variously as below, in no particular order :

I coaxed it in ... ... with a plate of spaghetti ... ...
Then I chopped off its wings ... ... with my little machete ... ...

I coaxed it in ... ... with a Spice Girls poster (or equivalent) ... ...
And then I put it ... ... in the pop-up toaster ... ...

I coaxed it in ... ... with a can of Tizer ... ...
And then I put it ... ... in the liquidiser ... ...

I coaxed it in ... ... with a chicken chow mein ... ...
Put a straw up its nose ... ... and sucked out its brain ... ...

No doubt you will know other verses, or your charges will invent some! If you do, please send them to me to add to these!
