Gay your life must be

Kookaburra sits on the old gum tree
Eating all the gumdrops he can see
Stop kookeburra, stop kookaburra
Save some there for me

Kookaburra sits on the old gum tree
With a toothache bad as can be
Ha kookaburra, ha kookaburra
Didn't save any for me.

Kookaburra sits on the old gum tree
counting all the monkeys he can see
Stop kookeburra, stop kookaburra
That's not a monkey thats me
