Lyrics
Mr Pressman Here's some news
You can print it if you choose
Just to show 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 has come all the rage,
It's even got into the old birdcage.
My canary's got circles under his eyes.

I thought he'd never do anything wrong.
Now he does snake hips all day long.
My canary's got circles under his eyes.

(Chorus 1)
His only pals are the Yellow Lark
And just a tiny sparrow
But I'm afraid when he's in the park
He leaves the straight and narrow

I raised this bird in a manner so strict
Now I feel certain I'm being tricked
My canary's got circles under his eyes.

Interlude

(Chorus 2)
There was a time he was satisfied
to flit among the flowers.
Now when I let him out he'll hide
up the tree for hours.

He won't eat his birdseed - it's really a sin
He won't sing a thing without his cup of gin
My canary's got circles under his eyes

(Repeat Chorus 1)

I raised this bird in a manner so strict
Now I feel certain I'm being tricked
My canary's got circles under his eyes.
My canary's got circles under his eyes
