Tie Me Kangaroo Down Cha Cha

[Intro – dialogue]
Rolf: What are you gonna sing for us tonight, Perot?
Perot: Well, I thought I would... Sing a little, original, sort of Spanish/ Italian cha-cha-cha thing, that I was written myself...

[Music starts]

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!

[Chorus – Perot singing]
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!)

[Bridge – dialogue]
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!

[Verse 1 – Perot singing]
Keep me cockatoo cool, Carissima
Keep me cockatoo cool – Curly!
And mind me platypus too, Carissima
Keep mе cockatoo
Cool – cha-cha-cha!
(Ugh)

[Verse 2 – Perot singing]
Take me koala bear back, Raccio
Takе 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!)

[Bridge – dialogue]
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!

[Verse 3 – Perot singing]
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!

[Chorus – Perot singing]
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!)

[Chorus – Rolf and Perot singing]
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!)
