Pink Flamingo On My Lawn

A flamingo on the lawn? Oh, yes!
With its s-shaped head so pretty.
Make fun if you think you must.
Fill yourself with giggles
At your house, not mine.
Flamingoes have
Feelings too
Pinkish
Ones

this is fun...love this one, it kind of reminds me of the lyrics from that Laurie Anderson song, she sings of Pink Flamingos on the lawn of a house, in a town where all the girls were named Betty.... x
