john williamson - old man emu lyrics

old man emu

let me tell you of an interview with an old man emu
he’s got a beak and feathers and things
but the poor old fella ain’t got no wings

aren’t you jealous of the wedge-tailed eagle – um-ba-da-lip-ida-da-da
while the eagle’s flyin’ round and round i keep my two feet firmly on the ground
now i can’t fly but i’m tellin’ you, i can run the pants off a kangaroo
ba-da-doo-doo, da-doo-doo-doo, doo-da-do-do, doo-doo
he can’t fly but i’m tellin’ you, he can run the pants off a kangaroo

well he was the model for the fifty cents – um-ba-da-lip-ida-da-da
the designer should have had more sense – um-ba-da-lip-ida-da-da
if you take a look it’ll prove to you (ha-ha-ha-ha), i ran the pants off that kangaroo
ba-da-doo-doo, da-doo-doo-doo, doo-da-do-do, doo-doo
take a look, it’ll prove to you, he ran the pants off the kangaroo

you can’t loop the loop like a c-ckatoo – um-ba-da-lip-ida-da-da
swoop and toss like an albatross – um-ba-da-lip-ida-da-da
you silly gallah, i’m better by far, than a white c-ckatoo or a budgerigar
they squeak and squawk and try to talk, why me and them’s like cheese and chalk
ba-da-doo-doo, da-doo-doo-doo, doo-da-do-do, doo-doo
he can’t fly but i’m tellin’ you, he can run the pants off a kangaroo

well the last time i saw old man emu – um-ba-da-lip-ida-da-da
he was chasing a female he knew- um-ba-da-lip-ida-da-da
as he shot past i heard him say
hoo-choo-ah-hoo-choo-ah-hoo-choo-ah-hoo-choo
she can’t fly but i’m tellin’ you, she can run the pants off a kangaroo
ba-da-doo-doo, da-doo-doo-doo, do-da-do-do, doo-doo
she can’t fly but i’m tellin’ you, she can run the pants off a kangaroo

well there is a moral to this ditty – um-ba-da-lip-ida-da-da-acapo
