Hello, Flamingo

Temptation has its sweet revenge like ice.
I'm punching my skin hard, don't treat me nicely.
See, they're telling me I'm big then I'm a skeleton,
Saying I'm not good enough so I lower my chin.

I stand out, but that's frowned upon.
I'm never the same color, not your price.
Smoking the green to avoid time.
So I can savor this moment.
Baby, I'm on it like air.
And say, "Hello, flamingo" (hello, flamingo)
Like flare.

Now who are you to say I'm undeserving?
Love's petals are not to be plucked like leaves.
Now I'm falling, I'm falling from the mountains with snow.
Little baby is good enough for the yellow road.

I stand out, but that's frowned upon.
I'm never the same color, not your price.
Smoking the green to avoid time.
So I can savor this moment.
Baby, I'm on it like air.
And say, "Hello, flamingo" (hello, flamingo)
Like flare.
