REF Paul! Paul! Paul the parrot Paul! Paul! Paul the parrot Paul! Paul! Paul the parrot He doesn’t ask for cracker Paul! Paul! Paul the parrot Paul! Paul! Paul the parrot Paul! Paul! Paul the parrot He screams for more liquor This is the story of an unusual bird Of one like this, you haven’t yet heard On ‘captains shoulders since many years There’s no storm or battle he fears Tattooed feathering from head to tail Every picture has its own tale An eye-patch and a wooden leg For mercy he would never beg REF Paul swears more than anyone aboard because of him, we’ll never be bored When we party, he is always here And loves to drink a lot of beer Rum drenched pineapple, his favorite food If he does get none, he gets in a mad mood Then in battle, he flies into frenzy He sees our foes and goes crazy REF One day Paul flew away from his crew Where he was gone, nobody knew He returned with five females at his side All gravid. He stood there with pride The eggs hatched out some weeks later Little birds cursing over the freighter Now a whole swarm is on the ship And supports us on every trip
