Hippety Hoppity - Spike Milligan
Hippety hoppity
Hoppity hoo
Goes the bounding
Kangaroo.
You can't lock him
In a pen
He would just
Leap out again.
It's hard to keep
Him in at all
For he can jump
A six-foot wall.
His leap is really
So immense
He can clear
A ten-foot fence.
You'd never keep him
In a zoo -
He'd just leap out
And over you.
No one so far
Has ever found a
Way to catch
The little bounder.
So, oh dear,
What can we do
To catch the bounding
Kangaroo?
Moral:
Never shoot a Kangaroo!
It's a nasty thing to do.
He won't harm me.
He won't harm you.
Hippety hoppety Kangaroo!
