When the time comes to document what we did here
The transcription won’t really be that hard
‘Cos I’m a woman eating monster
With a suitcase full of fire
And pink flamingos decorate my yard

And pink flamingos decorate my yard!

Do you remember that young girl who did all those things with her body?
Yeah, I guess you could say it was me who gave her her start!
I hear she’s working for President Clinton the way she used to work for me
But my pink flamingos keep pecking at her heart

My pink flamingos keep pecking at her heart!

And they never fly away
In my front yard they stay
And you know baby I sometimes find it odd
You’ve got to climb the statue of the demon to get closer to God!
Oh Lord!

Now there’s a crowd outside demanding my resignation
And a policeman about to draw his gun
Seems I’ve lost this battle
But the war has just begun
‘Cos my pink flamingos will outlive everyone

My pink flamingos will outlive everyone!

And they never fly away
In my front yard they stay
And, you know, baby
I sometimes find it odd
You’ve got to climb the statue of the demon to get closer to God!
Oh yeah!

*Certainly do. Matt Van, ? Alright, American Storytellers. This next song is a song, a song we don’t do too often, a song in the mid-stage of our career when we’d realised we’d stopped having radio hits ad we were like ‘let’s try write another radio hit and see what happens’ and throw it out there. Then it didn’t really go the way we wanted it to and we just kept putting out records, and there it is. We’ve got a new record coming out in September so go buy a copy of that. Song number eleven in a treasure trove of so many.*
