Flamingo Baby lyrics

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
