Katie Kangaroo was keen,
'Koala!' she had just seen,

And her name was Karla,
Which was why Katie's so keen.

The girl jumped on her pogo stick
Flashing her tush
Out in the bush

There once was a kangaroo
He couldn’t scare things by saying boo
He put on a mask
And scared everything out of its wits
He even scared himself

There once was a kangaroo 
Who came from Woolloomooloo 
She’d become a grouch 
If you touched her pouch 
It’s just something one shouldn’t do.

There once was a girl from Peru
Who really wanted to be a kangaroo,
so she hopped up and down 
in her frilly night gown
and ended up in the loo!

Matilda blew her didgeridoo
With wallabies hopping two by two
Some dingoes dropped by 
To eat Shepherd's pie
Then off they went with a kangaroo.

And a dead crocodile in its pouch

who escaped from the city zoo
they simply jumped the wall
for it wasn't that tall
now the dolphins want to jump it too

At work, he was a no-call no-show
His boss he annoyed
He’s now unemployed
Where he works now, we really don’t know

Great White Sharks are a Gold Coast wonder
Though crocodiles may steal their thunder
But all surfers know
It is time to go 
When kangaroos line up Down Under

There once was a rhino from Timbuktu
Who considered himself a kangaroo--
   He took a big leap
   Landed all in a heap--
Sat up and played taps on his kazoo.

Wily and creative in life, terrorizing in death
Understated breathless anticipation prances forth
jiggling quarts of kangaroo cacti exasperating my zany mother

Premium Member A Taste of Honey

Who was jealous of Winnie-the-Poo

   She found that un-funny
Warning: "My jar's not for you to unscrew!"

Last time I visited the zoo
I chatted with Mama Kangaroo.
She worried that as she hopped about,
Her infant roo would tumble out.
So I lent her my tube of Crazy Glue.

Basketball

Behind the scenes
Always wanting to win
Scoring
Kangaroo hops
Exciting buzzer beater
Tough sport
Basic dribbling
Always exciting
Last chance to win
Losing streaks.

There once was an athletic kangaroo
Who came down with a bad case of the flu --
   He sneezed really loud
   Jumped over a cloud -- 
Landed with a red cape and an achoo

Premium Member Zoo

I was once hopped up to visit the zoo
Until hopped upon by a kangaroo.
Never met such a female grouch!
She beat me until in her pouch
A can of snoose I placed for her to chew.

Wallaby

I wanna be a wallaby
And not just a wanna-be,
Not a kangaroo or 
Silly platypus

But, if I can’t be a wallaby
I think that I would wanna be
A plump and dumpy
Hippopotamus!

My Pet

I went to Peru
And found a kangaroo
I tried to take him to a zoo
But then I found him in my room!

Now he's my pet
Jumping like a jet,
Oh how I regret 
Ever taking him to my flat!
