Leaps and Bounds Lyrics


Kangaroo
Well i danced my dance to avoid this hound cos i got the strong impression
That i shouldn't be around
Though i loved the attention to be followed
And adored a dingo dog is something against
Which i'm not insured
It's a shame i'm not insured
So i went running running
I knew with speed and with my cunning i'd escape the dingo
Didn't look to me in such good shape
I had to run i had to run
I had to run
I had to run

Wallabies
He ran through the deserts and he ran through the mountains
He ran through the salt pans and danced in the fountains
He was hot he was thirsty but he knew darn well that first
He had to lose that hungry hound
And all the time his legs were coming on in leaps and bounds

Em
The kangaroo was so proud of his figure
But he didn't seem to notice when his legs got bigger

Wallabies
It's a wierd new look but he'll have to work it work it work it

Dingo
The dingo dog is ready to run another circuit
He may have the cunning but i knew he'd find wherever
He went running i was never far behind
At wallgong river he was at a loss
It's a width of whirling water with no way to get across
No way to get across

Kangaroo
But i went boing boing

Dingo
I found these antics most annoying what's the use i had
To swim to keep a breast with bouncing bruce
I made him hope i made him hop, i made him hope, i made him hop

Kanga
She made me hop, she made me hop, she made me hop, she made me hop

Wallabies
He hopped through the blue gums and he hopped through the flinders
He hopped through the tropics and leapt through the cinders
He hopped like a cricket we're surprised that he could stick it
Just to lose that hungry hound
And all the time his legs were coming on in leaps and bounds

Em
So keen was he to do well in the tussle
That he didn't stop to see what had happened to his muscle

Wallabies
That kangaroo leads a merry dance

Dingo
But he doesn't seem to know what's going on in his pants
(spoken)
Oh tie that kangaroo down sport

Kanga
Well i hopped one yard then i hopped another three
I was floating like a butterfly stinging like a bee
My legs were feeling strogner
So i hopped another five with all the joys of spring
I was so glad to be alive
So i went bounding bounding

Kanga and dingo
Bounding bounding

Wallabies
He hopped and he jumped and he leapt
And he bounded he hopped cross the islands that the ocean surrounded
And although he was flagging he still found the time for bragging
How he'd lost that hungry hound
And all the time his legs were coming on in leaps and bounds

All
All the time his legs were coming on in leaps and bounds
