My Father Killed a Kangaroo Tune: Terre de Nos Aieux My father killed a kangaroo, Gave me the grizz-el-ey part to chew. Wasn't that a terrible thing to do, To give to chew the grizz-el-ey part of a dead kangaroo. My father killed a parakeet, Gave me the teeniest feet to eat. Wasn't that a terrible feat to beat, To give to eat the teeniest feet of a dead parakeet. My father killed a grizzly bear, Gave me the hairiest part to wear. Wasn't that a terrible fare to bear, To give to wear the hairiest part of a dead grizzly bear. A round, but one that goes on to a second and third verse, sort of a spiral. From Joe Hickerson, I think.
