Paul the Parrot Lyrics


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
