Analysis of Open Season
Birdie calls in the morning tells the animals, Hunters, warning!
As the birdie sings, hunters dogs
spring, spring, spring.
Animals are very cunning,
They hear hunters,
They start running.
Hunters shoot big and small.
Hunters shoot short and tall.
Animals don't die,
If they did, that would make me cry.
