the red krayola - kangaroo? lyrics
Loading...
on their voyage of discovery
of privation and cartography
the sailors said to captain cook
“come over here and have a look
we’ve caught a creature with a pouch
that leaps and springs and seems to crouch
its head is small, its ears are long
its legs and tail are thick and strong.”
no+one knew what the creature was
some men were sent ashore because
animals must have a name
(and the natives knew the game)
meanwhile, the captivе, pushed and shoved
was given lеather boxing+gloves
the men returned, trusty and true
“they tell us it’s a .”
(the truth emerged much later when
on trips by less resourceful men
the aborigines told those who’d come to stay
that meant ?)
