My Canary Has Circles Under His Eyes Songtext
von Al Bowlly

Mister Press Man, here′s some news
You can print it if you choose
Just to prove that times have changed a lot
Though it may sound strange to you
It is absolutely true
You can believe it or not

Since making whoopee became all the rage
It's even got into the old birdcage
My canary has circles under his eyes


I thought he′d never do anything wrong
Now he does snake-hips the whole day long
My canary has circles under his eyes

His only pals are the Yellow Lark
Just a tiny sparrow
But I am afraid when he's in the park
He leaves the straight and narrow

I raised this bird in a manner so strict
Yet I have a feeling I'm being tricked
But My canary has circles under his eyes
