The Holly and the Ivy (Feral Pig and Cane Toad) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The holly and the ivy
If they come up in your yard
Then go and get the Roundup
And hit the mongrels hard
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm, hm-hm

[Verse 2]
The feral pig and cane toad
Have a right to exist
But they don't fit our ecology
And make awful Christmas gifts
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, la-la

[Verse 3]
The rabbit is a dreadful pest
And introduced, of course
But it makes a bonza Christmas dish
With gravy and plum sauce
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm, hm-hm

[Verse 4]
The privet and lantana
Are an absolute eyesore
And whoever introduced them
Has a lot to answer for
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, la-la

[Verse 5]
The banksia and bottlebrush
Koala and emu
They are honest Aussiе Diggers
They're thе only ones true blue
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm, hm-hm

[Verse 6]
The holly and the ivy
If they come up in your yard
Then go and get the Roundup
And hit the mongrels hard
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la...
And hit the mongrels hard!
