Split Enz - Parrot Fashion Love lyrics

Sitting on the veranda, with my old girl Miranda 5 o'clock shadows soft in the gloom In love after a fashion, we're broke, spent all our pa**ion 9 o'clock and we're off to our room Coming like a habit, coming like a ritual The same old tête-à-tête in your dreamy feather-bed You give lessons in parrot fashion love The same old tête-à-tête in your dreamy feather-bed You give lessons in parrot fashion love Drunk and disabled we're both under the table With the crumbs, in the doldrums we play Good loving and laughter, we both know what we're after And there don't seem a lot left to say Coming like a habit, coming like a ritual The same old tête-à-tête in your dreamy feather-bed You give lessons in parrot fashion love The same old tête-à-tête in your dreamy feather-bed You give lessons in parrot fashion love Polly want a cracker, Polly want a cracker The same old tête-à-tête in your dreamy feather-bed You give lessons in parrot fashion love The same old tête-à-tête in your dreamy feather-bed You give lessons in parrot fashion love, love, love, love. The same old monotone, you're gonna wind up on your own You learned your lesson, no more parrot fashion love Parrot fashion love Love, love, love
