MAN:# It may sound absurd # But I've heard a bird # Who screeches and makes speeches in the spoken word # He's got a snow-white coat # And he can even quote # Some lines from famous poems that Henry Lawson wrote # And though he's not been known # To use a telephone # He can hold a conversation on his own # He'll say, 'G'day!' # And then he'll fly away # But he'll be back to talk to us another day # He's a cockatoo # And he will talk to you # Or imitate any sound you want him to # He's a cockatoo # He's Aussie through and through # He's a 'Hello, cocky, have a cracker' # 'Hello cocky, what's the matter?' # He's a sulphur-crested cockatoo # He comes to visit me and sits up in a tree # And demonstrates his very vast vocabulary # When he says 'Hello mate' # You know his diction's great # If I could talk as well as him, I'd run the State # He's a cockatoo and he will talk to you # Or imitate any sound you want him to # He's a cockatoo, he's Aussie through and through # He's a 'Hello cocky, have a cracker' # 'Hello cocky, what's the matter?' # He's a sulphur-crested cockatoo # He's a cockatoo and he will talk to you # Or imitate any sound you want him to # He's a cockatoo, he's Aussie through and through # He's a 'Hello cocky, have a cracker' # 'Hello cocky, what's the matter?' # He's a sulphur-crested cockatoo # He's a cockatoo and he will talk to you # Or imitate any sound you want him to # He's a cockatoo, he's Aussie through and through # He's a 'Hello cocky, have a cracker' # 'Hello cocky, what's the matter?' # He's a sulphur-crested cockatoo.
