 Lyrics: 
 Spring is here, a-suh-puh-ring is hereLife is skittles and life is beer
 I think the loveliest time of the year is the spring
 I do, don't you? 'Course you do
 But there's one thing that makes spring complete for me
 And makes every Sunday a treat for me
 
 All the world seems in tune on a spring afternoon
 When we're poisoning pigeons in the park
 Every Sunday you'll see my sweetheart and me
 As we poison the pigeons in the park
 
 When they see us coming
 The birdies all try an' hide
 But they still go for peanuts
 When coated with cyanide
 The sun's shining bright
 Everything seems all right
 When we're poisoning pigeons in the park
 
 We've gained notoriety and caused much anxiety
 In the Audubon Society with our games
 They call it impiety and lack of propriety
 And quite a variety of unpleasant names
 But it's not against any religion
 To want to dispose of a pigeon
 
 So if Sunday you're free, why don't you come with me?
 And we'll poison the pigeons in the park
 And maybe we'll do in a squirrel or two
 While we're poisoning pigeons in the park
 
 We'll murder them all amid laughter and merriment
 Except for the few we take home to experiment
 My pulse will be quickenin' with each drop of strych'nine
 We feed to a pigeon
 (It just takes a smidgin!)
 To poison a pigeon in the park
