I think we are getting somewhere here - to accommodate the mimetic
proclivities of the Australian Lyrebird, we merely have to turn the
couplet into a tetret that reads:
Bird sings its own SPANISH name
Bird sings its own ENGLISH name
Bird sings some other bird's name
Not as above
Or for the dichotomous purists:
Bird sings its own SPANISH name
Not as above
Bird sings its own ENGLISH name
Not as above
Bird sings some other bird's name
Not as above
