How Big Is That Emu In My Window? -- (HAMBURG, Germany) - An escaped emu caused confusion in Hamburg after a woman called police to report what she thought was a bare-chested man with two big white dots on his forehead staring into her window, police said on Friday. The large, flightless, Australian bird resembling an ostrich has been on the run from a local zoo since Thursday. "The woman heard someone tapping at the window at night and when she looked out she saw a head with two big eyes and a bare chest," a Hamburg police spokesman said. Officers said they knew there was an emu on the run and put two and two together after they found no one suspicious. "We're still looking for either a naked man with huge eyes or an emu," the spokesman added. The bird has escaped twice in two weeks. Last week it ran away and frightened a horse, but was eventually captured.

Emu Bird Thrill by Sonja
(Or the Old Maid's Excellent Fantasy Adventure)
Parody lyrics by Sonja W. Oates / Tune: Mockingbird Hill

When the moon Monday evenin crept over the hill
And kissed my old bod' there by my window sill,
How my heart filled with rapture when I saw the sil-
Houette of that man with his Emu Bird build!

"Ooh-la-la! Pitter-te-hee-hee!" It gave me a thrill
To look out of my window at that Emu Bird's Build.
"Ooh-la-la! Pitter-te-hee-hee!" There's a piece for me still!
I'd welcome bein' deflowered in an Emu Bird Thrill.

He'd a three-foot long neck and big eyes that could kill
And I drooled at the thought of his takin' my will!
Then I tumbled down backwards-- a nasty ol' spill! --
In my home at the thought of that Emu Bird's build.

"Ooh-la-la! Pitter-te-hee-hee!" It gave me a thrill
To look out of my window at that Emu Bird's Build.
"Ooh-la-la! Pitter-te-hee-hee!" There's a piece for me still!
I'd welcome bein' deflowered in an Emu Bird Thrill.

Now, it's late in my years, never needed "the pill,"
And I'd not leave this life while I've 'everything' still.
Picture me in the thighs of that cock with the quills
Doin' wrong in the moonlight, 'cause he fills the bill!

"Ooh-la-la! Pitter-te-hee-hee!" It gave me a thrill
To look out of my window at that Emu Bird's Build.
"Ooh-la-la! Pitter-te-hee-hee!" There's a piece for me still!
I'd welcome bein' deflowered in an Emu Bird Thrill.
