Lyrics

Sunday evening I was walking
When I saw a little wombat in a suit
I said ?Hey there, what?s your hurry??
But he didn?t stop he turned around and called
?If you follow I will take you,
To the Kangaroos Fancy dress ball?

All the creatures were arriving
At a clearing down beside an old lagoon
Three koalas, two goannas
Lots of animals I?d never seen before
And they were gathered in the forest
For the Kangaroos fancy dress ball

And when the band began to play
All the animals would dance
They were changing partners there upon the floor
And doing things I?ve never seen done before

I saw Emus do the two-step
I saw wallabies that rocked with crocodiles
Old man dingo hollered loudly
?When you?re ready I will give the square dance call
To the music take your partners
For the Kangaroos fancy dress ball?

And when the band began to play
All the animals would dance
They were changing partners there upon the floor
And doing things I?ve never seen done before

I saw Emus do the two-step
I saw wallabies that rocked with crocodiles
Old man dingo hollered loudly
?When you?re ready I will give the square dance call
To the music, take your partners
For the Kangaroos fancy dress ball
It?s the Kangaroos fancy dress ball
You?re at the Kangaroos fancy dress ball?
