Transcript
00:00My Budgie Stoned
00:30He learned to smoke dope, I don't know
00:33He scores off a crow who comes and goes
00:40Dropping off baggies to the cage door
00:43My Budgie used to be healthy, he used to sing
00:49Now he hangs upside down squawking
00:54His eyes are red and he drools a lot
01:01Sometimes I can't tell if he's conscious or not
01:06He rolls little joints with his thin claws
01:09Carefully licking the paper so it sticks more
01:12Then he flies to the stove and turns it on
01:15Glide his doobie and turns himself on

01:24How he learned to smoke dope, I don't know
01:29He scores off a crow who comes and goes
01:35Dropping off baggies to the cage door
01:40He's gone downhill, he's let himself go
01:45His feathers have lost their natural glow
01:51He flies round the house, screaming and a-hollering
01:56Attacking the cat like a kamikaze plane

02:16Dropping off baggies to the cage door
02:20He's changed so much, he's not the same
02:26He's now a rasty fairy and Budgie preaching a new game
02:31He talks of ganja and raw and calls me mon
02:37He's got ganja plants growing behind the toaster
02:42A feathered connoisseur, an expert cultivator
02:47My Budgie only grows indica plants
02:52Because they are the strongest
02:54He's stoned as hell and will not stop
02:58The cops came and raided us, taking all his stash
03:04They would not believe me and took all my cash
03:10The judge said how ridiculous you think we will believe
03:15Your Budger Egar is responsible, I sentence you to jail
03:21So here I sit in my jail cell
03:24Framed by my Budgie, who is free and stoned
03:27When I get out, he's going to hell
03:30He'll be out on the street and homeless
03:33My Budgie stone, my Budgie stone
03:38How he learned to smoke dope, I don't know
03:44He scores off a crow who comes and goes
03:49Dropping off baggies to the cage door
