Well done, spot on.

The first time I missed the aspect of sitting on one's shoulder, which means it pretty much had to be a parrot of some sort. Except for that little detail, however, I thought the reference to Seven of Nine was a pretty good answer.

I have to admit I couldn't work out how you got to Seven of Nine from my original question, but then got side-tracked into images of Jeri Ryan in the Seven of Nine costume sitting on my shoulder. This was followed by speculation as to whether she would be more comfortable with one leg either side of my head and which way I'd be facing. At this point I had to go an put my head in a sink full of cold water and try to think of other thing!

I got there through the slang use of the term "a piece of" referring to sexual activity.

Of course if one was sitting on one's OWN shoulder, one must either be;
A Twelfth-level Yoga master, OR....
inexplicably stuck in a Klein Bottle (apropos a certain "Jolly Jack Tar from the Tyne...")

The only time Vladimir Ilyich Lenin told a joke in public was at the Zimmerwald Conference in 1915; Trotsky was making one of his usual hair-splitting "points of order" (he was arguing that "It depends what you mean by the word "the") when Lenin interrupted, with;
"The bourgeois and his mistress were engaging in a bit of extra-marital, and the mistress asked,
'Alexei, duschka, I am not getting as much out of the old in-ou in-out as I used to, could we please, just once, do it the "other way round"?'
And the bourgeois replied,
'Yob tvoje mat! You want to fill the dacha with screaming brachniks?'"
And all the assembled communists sat there open-mouthed; eventually Trotsky complained to the meeting's chairman (Georgi Plekhanov) that Lenin had grossly disrespected the meeting; told to explain himself, Lenin replied,
"Sometimes a joke is the only logical response to Trotsky's interminable hair-splitting!"
(That is the point where if somebody laughs, they're a communist)

A Pirate walks into a bar with a wooden ships wheel jammed in his groin.
The Bartender looks at him and says "Wow buddy, does that hurt?"
The Pirate replies "Aaaarrrr, it's drivin' me nuts!"
