High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! "Peacock" is a song by American recording artist Katy Perry, taken from her third studio album, Teenage Dream (2010). Filled with suggestive lyrics pertaining to male genitalia, Perry`s record label initially went against the idea of including it on her record. Similar to what happened with another song of hers – "I Kissed a Girl" (2008) – she refused. "Peacock" was met with generally negative reviews and, musically, was compared to the 1980`s hit "Mickey" by Toni Basil, and Gwen Stefani`s "Hollaback Girl" (2005).
