Peter The Parrot Lyrics – Ralph McTell
Singer: Ralph McTell
Title: Peter The Parrot
Did you know that a parrot can speak?
He hasn’t got lips – he’s only got a beak
So he can’t kiss but he’ll give you a peck
And he loves a little tickle
Scratch him on the neck
Scratch him on the neck
Scratch him on the neck
If you don’t do it right, well he’ll give you a peck
Wouldn’t you say, from what you’ve heard
That a perky pecking parrot is a pretty clever bird
Did you know parrots sleep on their feet
And they like peppers and nuts to eat?
They haven’t got hands so they grab them in their claws
And pop them in their beaks
And crush them with their jaws
Crush them with their jaws
Crush them with their jaws
One, two, three, give a round of applause
Wouldn’t you say, from what you’ve heard
That a perky pecking parrot is a pretty clever bird
Did you know that a parrot can speak?
He hasn’t got lips – he’s only got a beak
So he can’t kiss but he’ll give you a peck
And he loves a little tickle
Scratch him on the neck
Scratch him on the neck
Scratch him on the neck
If you don’t do it right, well he’ll give you a peck
Wouldn’t you say, from what you’ve heard
That a perky pecking parrot is a pretty clever bird
That a pistol-packing, person-pecking, purple-perching
Peanut-popping, pepper-picking, penny-pinching, pickled
Parboiled parrot… is a pretty clever bird?
