Lyrics:

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
Im 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
