lirik lagu ian dury and the blockheads - poor joey

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 sh-t 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 -h-llo!-

how the ruddy h-ll 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 b-st-rd!-
poor joey
poor joe
poor joey
every christmas they try to get me plastered
poor joey -h-llo!-

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 -h-llo!-

poor joey
poor joe
poor joey
poor joe
poor joey -who’s a pretty boy then?-
poor joe -h-llo!-

poor joey
poor joe -cheerio!-
