   One morning I could hardly wait to gazed out my window and look at my estate,   
   my eyes fell upon a little bird with a beautiful yellow bill.  I beckoned him   
   to come and lite upon my sill.  I smiled at him so cheerfully and gave him a   
   crust of bread, then    
   quickly closed the window and crushed his f**king head.   
      
   This I heard in 1969 and remembered it this way.
