Parakeets Lyrics

Just another lovely day in paradise

Staring at a pair of parakeets on the power line

Take me down to Melrose buy me something kinda nice

Let you know where I end up tonight and if the vibe is right

You say it's overrated

Overpopulated

I'd never make it

But I try

Tell me

How does my song sound on the radio

Everywhere you go

Tell me

Does it make you want to hold me close

Dance real slow

I bet you wish you'd never let me go

Things went right the moment I stepped off the plane

Even booked myself a gig or two down at Hotel Cafe

Dreamin' big and living small up in our tiny space

But every time I step foot out of the door I'm looking for a break

You say it's overrated

Overpopulated

I'd never make it

But I try

Tell me

How does my song sound on the radio

Everywhere you go

Tell me

Does it make you want to hold me close

Dance real slow

I bet you wish you'd never let me go
