Elephant Parrot and Kangaroo

B                                A                        

Last week walking down our street

G                                             F#             

I saw an elephant he had purple feet

B                                A                          

Looking at him I asked him how

G                                              F#

He said look here son don’t be nosey now

B                                        A           

Said I’ve been walking for many days

G                                                  F#                

I can’t find the jungles from whence I came

 

B                                                  

* So I said come home with me

E                            

We can have tea

F#                                  B                      

We can have cake and strawberries

B                                                  

So I said come home with me

E                            

We can have tea

F#                                  B                      

We can have cake and strawberries

 

 

Then the other day going to school

 

There was a kangaroo

 

Breaking all the rules

 

The teacher told him to go away

 

He turned to the teacher as if to say

 

I’ve been going for such a long time

 

It’s Australia that I’ve been trying to find

 

 

Then the other day I got on the bus

 

And to my surprise sitting next to us

 

There was a parrot

 

He had golden wings the conductor

 

Said where you going

 

The Parrot said I’m looking for Old John

 

But he’s a Pirate and I think he’s long gone
