Who Says There Wasn'T An Emu In the Stable

I stand proud and majestic and tall as can be even taller than Joseph at a whole three foot three I am honoured to be here and give all my heart though I may not have lines it is still a big part I smile wide and honest I sing loud and true next to star number seven and tree number two Though there's rumours about that my part in this fable was not actually present that day in the stable But it was so long ago and so far away that who was there or wasn't is tricky to say So I pay them no mind don't let them upset me when this show is over they'll never forget me I am trying my best and I hope that it shows though I wish Mother Mary wasn't picking her nose This is serious business and it must be done right even if the three kings are now having a fight The donkey is dancing there's unexplained bells the sheep are now whispering amongst themselves Still I keep my head high and do all I can do to be histories finest Nativity Emu
