[edit] Meaning of lyrics

When the song came out in 1963, the dance "The Bird" was hugely popular. The song lyrics are simply about the huge popularity of the dance called "The Bird". Any other interpretation is much more recent and was clearly not intended by The Trashmen in the 60s. So, the "fact" tag shall stay in place for a reasonable amount of time and then the creative "21st century" interpretation should be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fish Man (talkcontribs) 00:17, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
