Kookaburra

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree,
Merry, merry king of the bush is he;
Laugh, Kookaburra; laugh, Kookaburra!
Gay your life must be.

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree,
Eating all the gumdrops he can see,
Stop, kookaburra; stop, kookaburra!
Same some there for me.

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree,
He fell down and broke his knee,
Poor kookaburra, poor kookaburra,
Glad it wasn’t me.

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree,
Counting all the monkeys he can see,
Stop, kookaburra, stop, kookaburra,
That’s not a monkey, that’s me!

Kookaburra sits on an electric wire
Jumping up and down ‘cus his bum’s on fire
Fry Kookaburra, fry Kookaburra
Tasty you will be

Kookaburra sits on the railroad tracks,
Better get off or he’ll be flat,
Run kookaburra, run kookaburra,
uh-oh! watch out! SPLAT!
