I'm a nocturnal animal, I sleep all day
At night, I take flight to hunt for prey
"Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot"
Yeah, I make that sound
And I can spin my head nearly all the way around
O-W-L, an owl, that's me
You might find me in a barn or perched in a tree
Horned, snowy, elf, we're birds of a feather
We fly silently, and our brains are clever
"Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot"
Yeah, I make that sound
Then I eat little critters off the forest ground
I got super night vision when the sky goes black
To help locate my midnight snack
Those little birdies and rats
They find it a challenge
To break free from the clasp of my talons
"Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot"
Are the words that I speak
Now read my lips
I mean, read my beak
Here's the story of my diet
And this is how I tell it
You can see what I've eaten in my owl pellet
The things I can't digest on my dinner plate
Are the contents of the pellets I regurgitate
"Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot"
Yeah, I make that sound
Owl pellets are where the fur and bones are found
Of the prey that I caught on the forest floor
So watch out little rodents 'cause I'm coming for more
I'm a nocturnal animal, I sleep all day
At night, I take flight to hunt for prey
"Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot
Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot
Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot
Hoot, hoot, hoot
Hoot, hoot, hoot
Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot
Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot
Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot"
