Quaker Parrot Joke

The Parrot and the Burglar 

Late one night, a burglar broke into a house he thought was empty. He tiptoed through the living room but suddenly froze in his tracks when he heard a loud voice say: "Jesus is watching you!"

Silence returned to the house, so the burglar crept forward again.

"Jesus is watching you," the voice boomed again.

The burglar froze again – terrified. Frantically, he looked all around with his torch. In a far corner, he spotted a birdcage with a parrot perched inside.

"Was it you who said Jesus is watching me?" he asked the parrot.

"Yes," said the parrot.

The burglar breathed a sigh of relief, and asked the parrot: "What's your name?"

"Clarence," said the bird.

"That's a dumb name for a parrot," sneered the burglar. "What idiot named you Clarence?"

The parrot squawked sarcastically, "The same idiot who named the Rottweiller Jesus."
