On the first night of Chanukah my parrots gave to me —
Poopie Paper for the Compost heap.

On the second night of Chanukah my parrots gave to me —
Food flung on the floor
And Poopie Paper for the Compost heap.

On the third night of Chanukah my parrots gave to me —
Shredded toys and paper,
Food flung on the floor
And Poopie Paper for the Compost heap.

On the fourth night of Chanukah my parrots gave to me —
Feathers and down all over,
Shredded toys and paper,
Food flung on the floor
And Poopie Paper for the Compost heap.

On the fifth night of Chanukah my parrots gave to me —
A new coif for my hair!
Feathers and down all over,
Shredded toys and paper,
Food flung on the floor
And Poopie Paper for the Compost heap.
