I'm Joey the Budgie, I'm a boy or a girl |
|
I'm probably the most typical caged bird in the world |
|
In Cranham or Hounslow I sit on my perch |
|
Old Mother Nature's left me right in the lurch |
|
This is my routine: first I ponder and peck |
|
I look in the mirror and I shit on the deck |
|
I try to fly, I bang my head |
|
I think of something creative instead |
|
I ruffle my feathers and have a good scratch |
|
Spend at least half an hour trying to undo my catch |
|
Not as though I want to be deleted by an owl |
|
I've got to fight this awful situation somehow |
|
Poor Joey *who's a pretty boy then?* |
|
Poor Joey |
|
Poor Joe |
|
Poor Joey |
|
A bundle of joy then |
|
Poor Joey *hello!* |
|
How the ruddy hell does she expect me to speak |
|
With half a ton of cuttlefish stuck in my beak? |
|
I go into a moody, disdainfully preen |
|
I'm just to upset to mutter something obscene |
|
I appreciate the difficulties of owning a pet |
|
Speaking as a budgie, it's like Russian Roulette |
|
I was bred for the purpose and I shouldn't complain |
|
I know you'll forgive me when I sing this refrain |
|
Poor Joey *she's a right bastard!* |
|
Poor Joey |
|
Poor Joe |
|
Poor Joey |
|
Every Christmas they try to get me plastered |
|
Poor Joey *hello!* |
|
Joey the Budgie, I'm a boy or a girl |
|
I'm probably the most typical caged bird in the world |
|
In Cranham or Hounslow I sit on my perch |
|
Old Mother Nature's left me right in the lurch |
|
Poor Joey *who's a pretty boy then?* |
|
Poor Joey |
|
Poor Joe |
|
Poor Joey |
|
A bundle of joy then |
|
Poor Joey *hello!* |
|
Poor Joey |
|
Poor Joe |
|
Poor Joey |
|
Poor Joe |
|
Poor Joey *who's a pretty boy then?* |
|
Poor Joe *hello!* |
|
Poor Joey |
|
Poor Joe *cheerio!* |
