Violent Femmes - Flamingo Baby - Текст песни

You're a flamingo you stand on one leg
You're a flamingo baby you hatched from an egg
Well you hold your foot up so delicately over the sea
And when it comes down it comes down on me

Well I used to want to hump you
I used to want to rock and roll
I was attracted to your gracefulness
But your surprise sure took its toll

Now I guess I'd better go out now
Gonna try to find something new
And all I'm left with is this craving
For some flamingo stew

Now the beauty's in the gutter
The loveliness is off her throne
In the eyes of the beholder
It's gone and now he feels kind of alone

But this feeling it's the kind
That will shortly pass
I'm gonna find myself another bird
And roll on down the grass
