SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!

The Song Challenge:  Is That A Baby Budgie In Your Pants, Or Are You Just Glad To See Me? -- RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (Reuters) -- With parrots and snakes in his luggage and bird eggs tucked into his underwear, an Austrian tourist has been arrested and charged for animal trafficking, Brazilian police said on Wednesday.   "He put (the eggs) near his testicles so they would be at nest temperature," a police spokesman said.  Police discovered 21 parrots, four parakeets and two snakes hidden in two large suitcases carried by Austrian botanist Johann Zillinger.  hey also found Zillinger had rolled five parakeet eggs into a sock and nestled them in his underwear.  "Since some of the parakeets that he had with him were newborns, we assume that some of the eggs had already hatched."  Tipped off by an anonymous call, Rio de Janeiro police arrested the Austrian on Monday in front of his Copacabana beach hotel, as he climbed into a taxi on his way to catch a flight to Europe.  According to police, Zillinger bought the animals in the Amazon port city of Belen and planned to take them to Austria to sell them in Europe.


Gonna Haul Anacondas by Lin in Kansas
(To the tune of "Gonna Find Me a Bluebird")

Lin in Kansas' Comments:  Humble offering for a song with three chords:

Gonna haul anacondas
In a suitcase or two
Gonna catch me a parrot
For ... a ... zoo.

Gonna pack me a blue bird,
And a green cockatoo.
But for tough little eggs now
That ... won't ... do.

Bridge

I have a secret
In my old brown sock here.
It's like a rock here
Between my legs.
Don't touch me buddy,
I know I'm walkin' funny
But I'm makin' money,
I've ... got ... eggs!

Now they're chirpin' and cheepin'
And they're out of their shells,
And I forgot the birdseed�
Life ... is ... hell.

Yeah, they got the boa constrictor
And a mynah or three,
And now they're confiscatin'
My B ... V ... Ds.
