      Agreed. The entire song is just G13 and F13 repeated. The 13th and the 7th notes in the chords are only half a pitch apart, but the arranger separated them by an octave, which really gives the song the vibe it has.

    The first time I ever heard this song, I was a little 2nd grader in Indianapolis and my music teacher played it for us. The way the song paired up with the scenes in the actual episode was just perfect to me. I can still picture the school playground from the music room window with autumn leaves falling and us kids just itching for the recess bell to ring. I'm 25 now and every time I hear Little Birdie, it takes me back to that little 2nd grader who was curious of what the gift of LIFE had to offer!

    Vince Guaraldi made the best jazz music. Turned little kids on to cool jazz at an early age. Had a music class and tried to get the professor to talk about Guaraldi and he woudn't do it. I said everybody in this class has heard of Guaraldi but has no idea who we is. Let's show the class who he is, but he just didn't want to do it; Got mad at me stating as a Music Major I wasn't supposed to be in this class. Told him I wasn't a music major, music was just my hobby, which is why I was so interested in it!

    Little birdie, why do you fly upside-down?
    It's amazing at the way you get around
    Little birdie, why you worry like you do?
    Don't you worry, you just do what you can do
    Little birdie, things just fascinate you so
    And your friend there likes to show you what he knows
    Little birdie, he don't mind the way he should
    He needs watching, that's when you know he'll be good
    Little birdie, can't your friend do nothin' right?
    It just seems now all he wants to do is fight
    Little birdie, look at what he's trying to do
    It's so easy, yet he don't know what to do

I still have that recording..with the "You don't have time to play Snoopy" line. Gosh the young me was so much like me still. I love this song. I learned to play it on piano. Favorite line? Little Birdie...He don't mind the way He should, He needs watching...that's when You know He'll be good!

    Haven't heard "Little Birdie" for several years. Vince Guaraldi sure knew how to make a theme song tailored for individual Peanuts characters. . .and it's a soothing jazz number to listen to, after a hectic day! 🪶🐥🐤🦉🦜
