Old Man Emu
John Williamson

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-tail eagle?" - dom ba da little da da da

(Spoken in tempo) "While the eagle's flying round and round, I keep my two feet firmly on the ground

I can't fly, but I'm telling you, I can run the pants off a kangaroo".

doo dee ba doo doo doo , boo da da doot doo doo doo

He can't fly, but I'm telling you, he can run the pants off a kangaroo.

Well he was the model for the fifty cents - oom ba da little da da da

The designer should have had more sense - oom ba da little da da da

If you take a look, it'll prove to you, I ran the pants off that kangaroo.

Doo dee ba doo doo doo...Boo da da doot doo doo..

Take a look it'll prove to you, he can run the pants off the kangaroo.

You can't loop the loop like a cockatoo - Oom ba da little da da da

Swoop and toss like an albatross - Oom ba da little da da da

"You silly galah, I'm better by far, than a white cockatoo or a budgerigar;

They squeak and squawk and try to talk, why me and them's like cheese and chalk"

Ba da da Doo dee ba doo doo doo...Boo da da doot doo doo doo

He can't fly but I'm telling you, he can run the pants off a kangaroo...

Well the last time I saw Old Man Emu - Oom ba da little da da da

He was chasing a female he knew - Oom ba da little da da da

As he shot past I heard him say "She can't fly, but I'm telling you

She could run the pants off a kangaroo". -

Ba da da Doo dee ba doo doo doo Doo dee ba doo doo doo...Boo da da doot doo doo doo

She can't fly but I'm telling you, she can run the pants off a kangaroo

Well there is a moral to this ditty - Oom ba da little da da da

Thrush can sing but he ain't pretty - Oom ba da little da da da

Duck can swim, but he can't sing, nor can the eagle on the wing

Emu can't fly, but I'm telling you, he can run the pants off a kangaroo.

Well the kookaburra laughed and said "It's true, oom ba da little da da da,

He was chasing a female he knew - Oom ba da little da da da

As he shot past I heard him say "She can't fly, but I'm telling you

She could run the pants off a kangaroo". -

Ba da da Doo dee ba doo doo doo Doo dee ba doo doo doo...Boo da da doot doo doo doo

She can't fly but I'm telling you, she can run the pants off a kangaroo

Well there is a moral to this ditty - Oom ba da little da da da

Thrush can sing but he ain't pretty - Oom ba da little da da da

Duck can swim, but he can't sing, nor can the eagle on the wing

Emu can't fly, but I'm telling you, he can run the pants off a kangaroo.

Well the kookaburra laughed and said "It's true, oom ba da little da da da,

Ha Ha Ha Ha Hah Hoo, He can run the pants off a kangaroo"

BEAUTIFUL...

My kiss is beautiful,
my heart is beautiful.
Are you beautiful?
yes, yes!

My kiss is beautiful,
my breath is beautiful...
No, no!
Your breath is not beautiful!

                                                       The Weather                                        

                                                        The sky is grey.
                                                        The wind blows the clouds.
                                                        It's raining in my garden.
                                                        But I'm happy.
                                                        Because in my heart,
                                                        the sun shines.

My Seasons

I don´t have any reasons,
but my poem is about the seasons.
In Spring, you can read a book
about the story of Captain Cook.
In Summer, you can smell the flowers
but I don´t like cauliflowers.
In Autumn, the trees are sad
and I think that is so bad.
In Winter I make a snowman
and I say bye, bye to him with my hand.

BLANCA

Its name is Blanca.
It has got black nose and eyes.
It´s white like its name
beautiful like the snow
and sweeter than milk.
It likes to eat, sleep
and play with its ball.
I´ll love it forever.
What is it?
