Kangaroos in ones and twos
Seeking shade to take a snooze
Like to stop and graze a while
It’s their habit, it’s their style.
Kangaroos in threes and fours
A very common sight outdoors
They view you with a dumb blank stare
They seem so vacant, unaware.
Kangaroos in fives and sixes
What do they do for laughs and kickses?
They hop and jump, they weave and bob
And yes they hang out in a mob.
Kangaroos in sevens and eights
Quite a crowd now with their mates
Somtimes slow and sometimes hasty
Cooked on the grill they can be tasty.
Kangaroos in nines and tens
Please tell us when this doggerel ends
We’ve had enough of all this news
We’re finished with your kangaroos.
