- Kookaburra sitting on a gum tree
- High among the branches up tip top
- When a lizard passes rustling in the grasses
- Down you pounce and catch him
- Flip flap flop
- Kook kook kook kook
- Then you chuckle gaily
- Laugh your merry laughter ha ha hoo hoo hoo
- Ha ha hoo hoo
- Ha ha hoo hoo ha ha hoo hoo ha ha
- Till you make our sides ache laughing at you laughing
at you.
