May the Bird of Paradise….

 

CHORUS
"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"
"May an elephant caress you with his toes"
"May your wife be plagued with runners in her hose"
"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"

Song by Little Jimmy Dickens

I don’t think this is the kind of Bird of Paradise Little Jimmy had in mind.

Isn’t it beautiful though.

Birds of Paradise always remind me of my home town in Southern California. Your pictures show off their amazing shapes and colors.

When I saw your headline this song immediately popped into my brain! We were on the same track this a.m. Jimmy's Bird wasn't nearly as beautiful as this one I'm sure.

These things crack me up. If you think about it, they look like the ultimate party animal.
