All Wings In Moderation

So, Gabriel cocked a wing looking towards me,
'John, you know what's good for you don't you?
Not too much meat, not so good for the heart,
no smoking, not too much drinking - for a start.

Lots of exercise, do some games - good for the mind,
take a break, get out there - do something one kind,
be generous, don't just think of yourself mon ami,
do as you would do unto others - don't you just see?'

'Listen, my feathery friend, why are you so dull?
It's alright for you, just floating slowly around,
you live forever - I'm stuck here on the ground,
expect me to live in a corner without a sound.

So, I'm eating my meat, even committing adultery,
pathetic - you don't know what you're missing mon ami.'
