Odd Ducks

(album: Searching For Strawberries: The Story Of Jongo Bongo - 2023)

One of these things is not like the other
Basic Sesame Street, brother
They sent me to the schools
Where they try to reform ya
Felt like the oddest kid, whole state of California

Quack quack!
I'm an odd duck darling and I'm proud to be
Quack quack!
I'm an odd duck darling, doesn't bother me
Quack quack!
I'm a strange bird baby, I'm the first to say
Quack quack!
I'm a strange bird baby, it's the only way

One of these things is not like the other
Took a little while, for my talent to uncover
Discovered.... they mistakenly took
The cover at face value and misread the book

We see different prizes, we see different lines
We hear different voices, we see different signs
We have different callings, were on different grinds
You know I'm different by design

Quack quack!
I'm an odd duck darling and I'm proud to be
Quack quack!
I'm an odd duck darling, doesn't bother me
Quack quack!
I'm a strange bird baby, I'm the first to say
Quack quack!
I'm a strange bird baby, it's the only way

Characters crack brains, crack pots (quack quack I'm not wack)
Cranks, flakes, fruitcakes, head cases, kooks, nuts (quack quack I'm not wack)
Nut cases, nut jobs, eccentrics, originals (quack quack I'm not wacked)
Screwballs, weirdos, zanies, bohemians, mavericks, non conformists (quack quack I'm not wacked)
Rarities, freaks, non-followers, black sheep (quack quack I'm not wacked)

Odd ducks odd ducks odd ducks!
Odd ducks odd ducks odd ducks!
Odd ducks odd ducks odd ducks!

Quack quack!
I'm an odd duck darling and I'm proud to be
Quack quack!
I'm an odd duck darling, doesn't bother me
Quack quack!
I'm a strange bird baby, I'm the first to say
Quack quack!
I'm a strange bird baby, it's the only way
