The Condor
Its feathery wings,
Its leathery head,
So tender and loving—
The king of the dead.
Disguised with the ugliness
That it was unfortunately bred.
This magnificent bird
Now low in the ranks
Instead of high soaring
It merely sank.
Guiltless it suffers
Innocent it is.
Brutally murdered
Diminished to history.

Verse 1: This is a rap from the Blurb University
Tell'n you about our biodiversity
Me and my crew are here to warn you
About the wicked sweet bird
Called the California Condor
Chorus (x2): Com'on don't ponder
Save the condor
Let the bird soar
Cause it's falling to the floor
Verse 2: I'm a Preacher
For this creature
We'll be a helping hand
I'm think'n
Their extinction
Is not part of the plan
The path is clear
Kick into gear
I am hoping that you hear
If we don't act
The impact
Is that all their deaths are near
Chorus (x2): Com'on don't ponder
Save the condor
Help the bird soar
Cause it's falling to the floor
Verse 3: We make raps
Others do "stanzas"
But what ever
We gonna make this
A bird extravaganza
You listen in
We'll start raising mula`
Tell the press
Show yo zest
And make it sound cool
Chorus (x3): Com'on don't ponder
Save the condor
Let the bird soar
Or it'll fall to the floor

California Condor
It's a bird that flies,
and eats anything that dies.
It digs in with it's bald, bald head,
but is being killed by poisonous lead.
Though his head has no hair,
he is as big as a bear.
But slowly, sadly, still,
these condors become hunters kill!
What I mean really stinks,
Condors are becoming EXTINCT!
This bird is very big,
and builds it's nest with a twig!
Though he's ugly, bulky, big,
us sixth graders help him jig!
One problem with such a big bird,
it must have some giant turd!

Condor Desktop Backgrounds
Hey guys, sorry about the "largeness" of these desktop wallpapers. There was no way to thumbnail it. If you want it as your desktop, right-click on the one you want, and click "set as desktop background." That should do it. I will be adding more later.

The California Condor
It soars high,
then dives low.
It slices the air,
with no strife
Soon,
it'll fall great depths,
with no life.
Where the corpses'll lie,
here, there, and everywhere.
Soon,
the California Condor'll be no more.
And in our memories we'll know,
how high it loved to soar,
and how it loved to dive so low.

Wiked Awesome Monkey Dude, Why don't you wait until you are done with the rap and then post it instead of just having something black at the bottom of our page. That way people don't think we are weird for having black lines at the end of the page.

All you have to do to see the rap is highlight it with your cursor. It doesn't not show anything.

Actually alice, we made it [me and writing lunatic] during current events last week on friday... it took us about thirty mintues, only because we also had to pay attention to our classwork but we managed to squeeze enough time, about ten minutes approx., into writing it all out. It's like when your hit with a glob of ideas, you just GOT TO write them down... or they're lost forever! Hey thanks for the credits chicken chaser

I think the lyrics should stay up, and you should just suprise everyone when you put it up.

Wow, I guess our wicked sweet manager, Flying Onion Boy, put up that flahy thingy as our rap lyric title. I don't know how to do it, and I don't Hotdog Bob nor Mr. Nacho have made it to this page, let alone the wiki.
