Some folks I know keep looking for rare old coins
and stamps.
While others see what's cooking, in antique books
and lamps.
Some hobbies are like slavery, there's one too tough
for words.
This girl has got an aviary, and you should see her birds.
#1.
She's got chanticleers and dickey birds, intelligent and
tricky birds, that make the boys hang around.
Her crow is black and shiny, her hummingbirds are tiny,
but she's got the biggest parakeets in town!
#2.
She's got cockatoos and bobolinks, in royal blue and dusty
pinks, and you should see them hangin' upside down.
Oh, it's thrilling to behold her, when she wings them past
her shoulder, cause she's got the biggest parakeets in town!
#3.
And every night when she gets into bed, she puts each one
on a pillow.
Oh, they sound like Bing, when they start to sing, tweet
willow, tweet willow, tweet willow.
#4.
After holding them and petting them, she gets a thrill in
letting them, go swingin' from the ceiling to the ground.
Ask anyone who's seen 'em, it's hard to choose between 'em.
Cause she's got the biggest parakeets in town!
#5.
Imagine her in love one day, as she tells her fiance, "Okay!"
on the day the wedding rolls around.
Now, he loves the ground she stands on, he can't wait
to get his hands on, the biggest parakeets in town.
#6.
Well, picture on their wedding night, when hubby, dear, turns
off the light, and wakes in the mornin' with a frown.
As he goes to caress her, he sees them on the dresser
the biggest parakeets in town!
(She's really got 'em, boy! ) the biggest parakeets in town!
(They're enormous!)
