Pretty Bird - Jemaine Clement

I was striking suave, ambitious

Feet to beak, so birdylicious

Now I’m vile, I am villainous and vicious

Oh, and malicious

I had it all, a TV show, women too

I was tall, over 1 foot 2

Then they got a pretty parakeet to fill my shoes

That’s why I am so evil, why I do what I do

(He was a superstar) So young and vital

(He's nasty) A South American Idol

(He's a suspicious bird) Who said that about me?

(A very vicious bird) I’ll have you rotisseried

I was the king of telenovelas

The envy of all the other fellas

Then I was pushed out

For a Pretty Polly parakeet from Paraguay

They called Patricious

Common Paraguayan name

(He's a nasty bird) I’m insidious

(He's ghastly) Oh, I’m hideous

(He was a real macaw) I’m a cockatoo

(An obscene bird) Yes, that word’s true

I’m a feathery freak with a beak, a bird murderer

You think you’re better than me, I never heard of ya

I’m evil, I fill your cheese ball with weevils

I poop on people and I blame it on the seagulls

It was him

(He's a nasty bird) I’m invincible

(He's ghastly) I’m unminceable

I’m unwashable, unrinseable

Like an abandoned school I have no principle

All of you Brazilian birds

All 18 million birds

I’ll tell you what I’m going to do

I’m going to make you…

Shut up now, shut up, it’s just me —

I will make you ugly too

Did you hear how dramatic that was

With the end?
