A trip today
About seventeen times
I was walking down the street
Saying "Keep in line, keep in line"
I wandered for about 17 feet
Found my destination
It was right across the street
The park was nice
The bums were chilling
I dime for advice
That was you
I was willing
To hear a chill bum having something to say
Besides, here's a cup
Give me money while I lay
Perched up in a tree
Spread your wings
And then chose me
You see
'Cos I was feeling fine
Pigeon Penelope
Eventually you will leave me alone
It's just a matter of time
Eyed the bird
Then my friend appeared
He said:
"Imani how you feeling? 'Cos you acting kinda weird."
Mind went blank
I couldn't explain
Came up with something fast
To prove that I was sane
"It's that thing above me, not you sir, don't worry."
A bit disturbed
Left in a hurry
Hand shake
Kiss on the cheek
"You need some time, I'll see you in a week."
Perched up in a tree
Spread your wings
And then chose me
You see
That I was feeling fine
Pigeon Penelope
Eventually you will leave me alone
It's just a matter of time
Down came your little package
Knocked me right off my feet
If I could I swear I'd kill you
Sugar cubes sure taste sweet
With a pigeon
Perched up in a tree
Spread your wings
And then chose me
You see
That I was feeling fine
Pigeon Penelope
Eventually you will leave me alone
It's just a matter of time
