A cockney is someone born in the east end of London just for those who don't
the east end is renown for tough gangster types like the cray twins.
right.

A guy was walking past a pet shop and saw a parrot in the window.
I'll have that he said.

upon getting home all the parrot would say is :
I'm a cockney parrot and hard as nails!
Days went by and still all the parrot would say is :
I'm a cockney parrot, I'm as hard as nails.

The guy had enough so went to the pet shop and brought a kestrel.
He thought to himself, that's gonna shut that dam parrot up!
When he came down in the morning the kestrel was dead on the cage floor.
Guy says, what happened?
Parrot says, I'm a cockney parrot, I'm as hard as nails!
Following day he goes out and comes back with a golden eagle.
This will shut up that kin parrot.
Next morning guy comes down and see feathers everywhere!
Guy says, what the f happened?
Parrot says,
I'm a cockney parrot and hard as nails but I had to take my coat off for that one! !
