Kangaroo With a Boomerang
Kangaroo With A Boomerang
A kangaroo went hopping
through the outback one day,
he was hopping mad
while carrying a boomerang.
He was looking for me
I did something bad,
I stepped on his tail
that made him extremely mad.
I didn't do it
no, I swear,
he'll smack me with that thing
I can't hide anywhere.
I tried to hide
in a eucalyptus tree,
it wasn't good enough,
because he found me.
I tried to explain to the kangaroo
what I did was a mistake,
he was so angry
he began to shake.
He beat me over the head
with that gigantic boomerang,
I'll never make friends
with a kangaroo again.
