Just like a parrot I repeat the words, Only happy ones just like I’m told, My words are limited And my freedom is denied For the happiness of  my owner, For the amusement of his friends. I can’t fly away nor can I say what I mean. I look peaceful but my mind is on a fight. I repeat what is said to me without a thought. I am a parrot inside and it’s for the best. For me and all the rest. The pain in my words cost too much. Couse my words are hell and my lips are the gate. I’ll stay in that cage and repeat the happy words. It is nothing new, Nothing I am not used to do. Just like a parrot, I repeat the words.

Like a parrot
Just like a parrot I repeat the words, Only happy ones just like I’m told, My words are limited And my freedom is denied For the happiness of  my owner, For the amusement of his friends. I can’t fly away nor can I say what I mean. I look peaceful but my mind is on a fight. I repeat what is said to me without a thought. I am a parrot inside and it’s for the best. For me and all the rest. The pain in my words cost too much. Couse my words are hell and my lips are the gate. I’ll stay in that cage and repeat the happy words. It is nothing new, Nothing I am not used to do. Just like a parrot, I repeat the words.
