Priest Buys a Parrot

A priest is buying a parrot to keep him company. "Are you sure he doesn't scream, yell, or swear?" asked the priest. "Oh absolutely. He's a very religious parrot," the storekeeper assures him. "Do you see those ribbons on his legs? When you pull the red ribbon on the right leg, he recites the Lord's Prayer, and when you pull the blue ribbon on the left leg he recites the Hail Mary." "Wonderful!" says the priest, "I will take him -he will be perfect for my home." At home the priest shows him off to his housekeeper and explains what a wonderful religious parrot he is and what the ribbons are for....she is most impressed and then asks "what happens if you pull both ribbons?" The parrot screeches, "I fall on my ass. I fall on my ass I fall on my ass......!!!!
