Frigate bird, way up in the atmosphere.
Frigate bird, will you ever come down here?

Soaring o'er the sea,
Where the fish will be,
Watching as they leap,
Snagging one to keep,
Gliding through the air,
On the currents there,
Flying effortlessly.

Frigate birds are magnificent,
Staying airborne for weeks.
While they're flying their time is spent,
Stealing fish from other seabird's beaks.

Frigate bird, way up in the atmosphere.
Frigate bird, will you ever come down here?

Oceans you survey,
Looking for your prey,
Grabbing, when you wish,
Leaping flying fish.
Cruising through the clouds,
Far away from crowds,
Never going astray.

Nobody thought that frigate birds,
Made their home in the sky.
It's difficult to put in words,
How amazing is the way they fly.

Frigate bird,
Frigate bird,
Frigate bird...
