lyrics

In a little town I used to know in the middle of Formosa
There’s a lot of strange things happening, and if you look a little closer
You might find a waffle shop with waffles galore
And a lonely looking bird perched outside the door…

Hello, hello, is it me you’re looking for?
I’m waffle shop macaw (x2)

Now our feathered little friend he was taken from Belize
Where he spent his days flying and roosting in the trees
But now he sits alone and talks to people every day
And if you listen close you can hear him say..

Hello, hello, is it me you’re looking for?
I’m waffle shop macaw (x2)

How does it feel now that you’re all alone?
Locked up in here and so far from home?
How does it feel, now that you’ve nowhere to be
Stuck in a pond when you should be out in the sea?
Have you ever heard a tale quite so dreadful or absurd?
The story of a man who makes a monkey of a bird
So if you see a raptor next time you’re in a zoo
Imagine how you’d feel if the bird was you!

How does it feel now that you’re all alone,
Locked up in here and so far from home?
How does it feel, that now that you’ve nowhere to be,
Put in a pond when you should be out in the sea?
How does it feel now that you’ve nowhere to roam,
Stuck in a cage when all of your friends have flown?
How does it feel knowing you’ll never be free
Chained to a perch when you should be up in a tree?

They’re laughing and pointing
I’m chewing on my tethers
They’re staring and poking
I’m pulling out my feathers
