Song: Flamingo Baby Artist: Violent Femmes Album: Why Do Birds Sing? Transcribed by Ian Strung intro: C C Yeah, you're a flamingo, you stand on one leg F C you're a flamingo baby, you hatched from an egg F G Well, you hold your foot up so delicately over the sea C F C And when it comes down it comes down on me C I used to want to hump you, I used to want to rock and roll F C I was attracted to your gracefulness but then surprise took its toll F G Now I guess I'd better go out now and find something new C F C And all I'm left with is a craving for some flamingo stew (solo) C Now beauty's in the gutter, and loveliness is off her throne F C In the eyes of the beholder he's gone and now he feels kind of alone F G But this feeling is the kind that will always shortly pass C F C I'm gonna find myself another bird and roll on down the grass (repeat first verse)
