lyrics

The Cockatoo

The Cockatoo
Ockatoo, katoo, katoo, too
He raises his comb on top of his head
And looks at you too

Cracks a nut between his beak
And he can talk too too
The Cockatoo, ockatoo
Katoo, katoo, too

Blue and green parakeets
Pick among the leaves
For the flowers they eat

But the Cockatoo...

Stylish hoopoes like hollow trees
They build their nests
With grass and leaves

But the Cockatoo...

Humming birds have very short wings
Flap so fast
You think they sing

But the Cockatoo...
