Tie Me Kangaroo Down Cha Cha - Rolf Harris

Rolf: That’s nice.

Let’s hear it then…

Perot: Alright

Backing vocals: Ugh!

Perot: What was that?!

Rolf: What was what?

Perot: That «ugh!»

thing?

Rolf: Oh, they always do that with cha-cha-chas… Now, come on

Perot: Okay

Backing vocals: Ugh!

Tie me kangaroo down, cha-cha-cha

Tie me kangaroo down — sport!

Tie me kangaroo down, cha-cha-cha

Tie me kangaroo…

Down — cha-cha-cha!

(Ugh!)

Rolf: Just a minute Perot, I thought you said this was original?

Perot: Well, it is.

I wrote it myself.

I know — 'cos I was there when I writ it!

Rolf: Well, let’s hear a bit more of it then…

Backing vocals: Cha-cha-cha!

Keep me cockatoo cool, Carissima

Keep me cockatoo cool — Curly!

And mind me platypus too, Carissima

Keep m cockatoo

Cool — cha-cha-cha!

(Ugh)

Take me koala bear back, Raccio

Tak me koala bear back — Bluey!

Take him twice round the track — and then back of course

Take me koala bear

Back — cha-cha-cha!

(Ugh!)

Rolf: Just a minute, Perot.

This is a straight pinch from 'Tie Me Kangaroo Down,

Sport'… But you’ve lost all the feeling of the old Australian stockman lying,

dying?

Perot: I was just going to get to that bit…

Rolf: Well… I’m sorry

Backing vocals: Cha-cha-cha!

Hide me head, when I’m dead, Jabolo

Hide me head, when I’m dead — Fred!

So we hid his head when he died, kid

And where did you think that we hid it?

Under the bed… Cha-cha-cha!

Tie me kangaroo down, cha-cha-cha

Tie me kangaroo down — sport!

Tie me kangaroo down, cha-cha-cha

Tie me kangaroo…

Down — cha-cha-cha!

(Cha-cha-cha!)

(Ugh!)

Tie me kangaroo down, cha-cha-cha

Tie me kangaroo down — sport!

Tie me kangaroo down, cha-cha-cha

Tie me kangaroo…

Down — cha-cha-cha!

(Ugh!)
